This copycat Cream of Chicken and Gnocchi Soup is a velvety, restaurant-quality comfort meal. Featuring pillowy potato gnocchi, tender shredded chicken, and fresh spinach in a rich, savory broth.

Ingredients

Scale

one half cup margarine

three quarters cup finely chopped onion

three quarters cup finely chopped celery

one half cup finely grated carrot

one and one half teaspoons minced garlic

one third cup all-purpose flour

four cups chicken broth

three quarters cup half-and-half

three quarters cup milk

one sixteen ounce package potato gnocchi

one and one half cups chopped cooked chicken

three quarters cup shredded fresh spinach

one half teaspoon dried rosemary

one half teaspoon salt

one quarter teaspoon ground black pepper

one quarter teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

1. Melt margarine in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic for 5 to 10 minutes until softened.

2. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the mixture is fragrant and the vegetables are coated.

3. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, half-and-half, and milk. Bring to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes until thickened.

4. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the gnocchi, chicken, and spinach. Season with rosemary, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Simmer for 8 to 10 minutes until gnocchi are tender.

Notes

For a thinner consistency, add an extra splash of chicken broth.

If you don’t have margarine, unsalted butter works perfectly as a substitute.

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently on the stovetop.
