Chicken gnocchi soup: master this creamy, hearty recipe in under an hour. Packed with tender chicken, gnocchi, and veggies, it’s a perfect family meal.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ tbsp olive oil (divided)
- 12 oz skinless boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
- Kosher salt and ground pepper (to taste)
- 1 large red onion (chopped)
- 2-3 celery stalks (chopped)
- 3 medium carrots (peeled and chopped)
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme (chopped)
- 5 cups unsalted chicken stock
- 8 oz fresh gnocchi
Instructions
- Heat half of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add in the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, then stir and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes more, until nicely browned. Set aside on a plate, and cover to keep warm.
- Add remaining oil to the pot and sauté the onions, celery, carrots and chopped herbs, stirring occasionally.
- Once the veggies are tender, add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, stirring all the way through the bottom of the pot to remove any brown bits. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Return the chicken and stir in the fresh gnocchi. Allow the gnocchi to cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they start to float to the surface.
- Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
