Ingredients
- 16 oz gnocchi pasta dry
- 2 cups cooked chicken leftover rotisserie-style chicken works best
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 1 stalk celery diced
- ¾ cup carrot shredded
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
- 2 cups cream or half and a half
- ½ teaspoon mustard powder
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried or fresh
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup baby spinach
- ½ to 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
- 4 lices Bacon cooked and broken small
Instructions
- Start by cooking bacon until it’s brown and crispy on both sides. Remove bacon onto a kitchen paper-lined plate, to drain off the grease.
- You can use the fat from the bacon to sauté onions. Or leave bacon fat and use olive oil and butter.
- Add olive oil and butter to a large pot. Sauté diced onion, diced celery, and shredded carrot until softened.
- Stir in minced garlic for about a minute.
- Stir all-purpose flour and cook on a medium flame for about 2 minutes, until flour begins to turn a golden color.
- Add chicken stock, and cream (or half and a half) in slow streams to prevent the roux from splitting. Stir well and allow it to heat on medium flame.
- Add gnocchi pasta, and stir it well. Read packet instructions to see the cooking time for pasta. Don’t wait too long until gnocchi is cooked, it will continue to cook in the stock, so proceed with the next step.
- Immediately add cooked chicken diced into small cubes. Leftover cooked chicken like rotisserie chicken works best.
- Stir in mustard powder, thyme, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Add baby spinach and red pepper flakes to the soup.
- Turn off the flame. Spinach will cook in the heat of the soup. Wait until the spinach is cooked and wilted.
- Chicken gnocchi soup is ready.
- Serve hot immediately with bacon bits sprinkled on top. Enjoy!
