A creamy and comforting soup inspired by Olive Garden’s famous Chicken Gnocchi Soup. Made with tender chicken, soft gnocchi, and a rich broth.

  • Total Time: 30 mins
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 16 oz potato gnocchi
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced chicken and cook until no longer pink. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, sauté onion, carrots, and celery until softened (about 5 minutes). Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add gnocchi and cook for 3-4 minutes until they float.
  4. Stir in heavy cream, spinach, thyme, parsley, and cooked chicken. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter version.
  • Fresh gnocchi cooks faster than frozen—adjust cooking time if needed.
