Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons butter or vegan butter
  • 1 cup carrots sliced
  • 4 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 1 large celery rib thinly sliced (or 2 small ribs)
  • 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 all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken stock or broth
  • 1 cup milk any kind, unsweetened almond milk works
  • 12 ounces gnocchi gluten free or regular package
  • 1.5 cups cooked chicken breast shredded (about 1/2 pound pre-cooked)
  • 0.5 cup frozen peas

Equipment

  • Dutch oven or large soup pot

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/onions. Sauté until the mushrooms release their liquid and the liquid has evaporated, 3-4 minutes. Season with seasoned salt and pepper then continue to sauté, turning the heat down slightly if necessary, until vegetables are tender, another 6-7 minutes.
  2. Add garlic, poultry seasoning, and dried thyme then sauté 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. Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  4. 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

Different brands sell different weighted packages of gnocchi – be sure to purchase 12 ounce box, or add more broth/milk if using a larger 16 ounce package. Delallo brand gluten free gnocchi recommended. Can use Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten free baking flour. Stir frequently while gnocchi cooks to prevent sticking. Prep ahead: Chop vegetables and cook/shred chicken on Sunday to make weeknight cooking faster. For dairy free option, use non-dairy butter and unsweetened almond milk.
