Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken — Use leftover rotisserie chicken
- 1 package (16 oz) of gnocchi
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken and let cook for 10 minutes to combine flavors.
- Gently add the gnocchi into the hot broth. Cook for 3-4 minutes until they float to the surface. Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper.
- Simmer for an additional 2 minutes to meld flavors. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken with beans or tofu.
- Ensure gnocchi are added just before serving to prevent sogginess.
- Enhance flavor by adding extra herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice.
