A comforting one-pot meal that combines tender gnocchi with shredded chicken, fresh vegetables, and a creamy sauce.

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter or vegan butter
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 4 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 large or 2 small ribs celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 large shallot or small onion, chopped
  • Homemade seasoned salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • Pinch dried thyme
  • 3 tablespoons gluten-free flour (or all-purpose flour if not gluten-free)
  • 2 cups chicken stock or broth
  • 1 cup milk (any kind; unsweetened almond milk works great)
  • 12 oz package gluten-free gnocchi
  • 1 ½ cups shredded chicken breast (~½ lb pre-cooked)
  • ½ cup frozen peas

Instructions

  1. Heat a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium-high heat. Melt the butter and add the sliced carrots, mushrooms, celery, and shallots or onion. Sauté until the mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates, about 3-4 minutes. Season with homemade seasoning salt and pepper, then continue sautéing, turning the heat down slightly if needed, until the vegetables are tender, about 6-7 minutes.
  2. Stir in the minced garlic, poultry seasoning, and dried thyme. Sauté until the garlic becomes fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute to activate the flour.
  4. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Add the milk and increase heat to medium-high until the mixture comes to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  5. Once simmering, add the gnocchi and stir to combine. Lower the heat to medium and simmer, stirring frequently, until the gnocchi are tender, about 5-6 minutes.
  6. Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen peas. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot, ladling it into bowls.

Notes

Watch the cooking time to keep vegetables tender without losing texture. Use fresh ingredients for enhanced flavor.
