Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Season the chicken on both sides with garlic parsley salt. Preheat the skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until it's golden brown. Poke the chicken with a knife to see if it's cooked through. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes and dice it into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Dice, chop, and prepare the veggies for the soup.
  3. Melt the butter with oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add in the diced onion, celery, carrots, and pressed garlic. Cook the veggies, stirring them occasionally until they soften. Whisk in the flour and cook the mixture for about 1 minute.
  4. Pour in the half-and-half and cooked chicken and bring the soup to a simmer. Add in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer again.
  5. Add the gnocchi and simmer it until gnocchi float to the top and are fully cooked. Add in the spinach and remove the soup from the heat.
  6. Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
