Report

Lemon Gnocchi with Chicken is seasoned chicken breasts, pan-fried until tender and juicy, on top of a pile of potato gnocchi in a creamy, zesty lemon-flavored sauce. It's a delicious main dish that is made in one skillet for easy clean-up, and all under 30 minutes!

Instructions

Pat chicken breasts dry and season evenly with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
To a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, add butter and oil. Once the butter has melted, add chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the opposite side, until cooked through and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. (Depending on the size of the chicken breasts, cooking times may vary.)
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate. Tent to keep warm.
To the same skillet over medium heat, add garlic, and cook for one minute. Add lemon juice, chicken broth, and salt. Using a wooden spatula, stir and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan as you go.
Add heavy cream and gnocchi. Stir to combine. Continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, or until gnocchi is cooked through.
Add parmesan and spinach. Stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the spinach is wilted, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and top with the cooked chicken.
Garnish with parsley and serve.
