Instructions
- Add the oil and butter to a large soup pot over medium-high heat.

- Add the garlic and mushrooms to the pot and cook for a few minutes.
- Stir in the chicken broth, water, Italian seasoning, chicken, and gnocchi. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil.

Notes
- You can use milk or half-and-half instead of cream if you prefer.
- The longer you cook/leave the soup to sit, the more it'll thicken up because the gnocchi will release starch.
