Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup gnocchi
1 cup heavy cream
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups spinach
1 cup carrots, diced
1 cup celery, diced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil
Instructions
Sauté the vegetables: In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced carrots, celery, and minced garlic, sautéing until the vegetables are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. This will enhance the flavors of the soup.
Stir in the gnocchi and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the top.
Mix in the shredded chicken and heavy cream. Stir until heated through and combined, about 3 minutes.
Add the spinach, cooking until it wilts, about 1 minute.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot.
Notes
Use high-quality chicken broth for the best flavor. You can substitute spinach with kale or Swiss chard if desired.
