Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons butter or vegan butter
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 4 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 1 large or 2 small ribs celery thinly sliced
  • 1 large shallot or small onion chopped
  • Seasoned salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic pressed or minced
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 pinch dried thyme
  • 3 tablespoons gluten-free flour or AP flour if not GF
  • 2 cups chicken stock or broth
  • 1 cup milk any kind, unsweetened almond milk works great
  • 12 oz package gluten-free gnocchi
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded chicken breast about 1/2 lb pre-cooked
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

Equipment

  • Dutch oven or large soup pot
  • Wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. Heat a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium-high heat. Melt butter in pan then add carrots, mushrooms, celery, and shallots or onions. Saute until the mushrooms release their liquid and the liquid has evaporated, 3-4 minutes. Season with seasoned salt and pepper then continue to saute, turning the heat down slightly if necessary, until vegetables are tender, another 6-7 minutes.
  2. Add garlic, poultry seasoning, and dried thyme then saute until garlic is very fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle flour over vegetables then stir to coat and cook for 1 minute. Slowly pour in chicken broth while stirring to avoid lumps then add milk and turn heat up to medium-high.
  4. Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, then add gnocchi and stir to combine. Turn heat down to medium then simmer, stirring frequently, until gnocchi are tender, 5-6 minutes.
  5. Stir in chicken and peas then taste and add seasoned salt and/or pepper if necessary. Ladle into bowls then serve.

Notes

Pay attention to gnocchi box size - you need a 12oz box. Some brands sell 16oz packages; increase broth and milk if using larger package. Use Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten-free baking flour or any measure-for-measure type flour. Delallo brand gluten-free gnocchi is highly recommended. For dairy-free version use non-dairy butter and milk alternative.
