Instructions
- Pro Tip: Prepare/measure out all ingredients before beginning.
- Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook and crumble to break it apart. Stir occasionally until cooked through, 7-10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add the wine and set the heat to medium. Use a silicone spatula to “clean” the brown bits from the bottom/sides of the pot, this will add more flavor to the soup. Bubble gently and reduce by half, about 4 minutes.
- Add the butter, onions, celery, carrots, and garlic. Cook until softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add the soy sauce, hot sauce, and seasonings and cook for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the chicken broth in small splashes, stirring continuously. Add the heavy cream in the same manner. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Add the sausage back along with the gnocchi and simmer for about 5 minutes, refer to package instructions for exact cooking time.
- Reduce heat to low and sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and serve!
Notes
- Pro Tips
- Storage:
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 6 servings in this recipe.
- Sausage: I use (and love) Jimmy Dean regular sausage in this recipe, it’s delicious. I find it near the bacon and breakfast sausage.
- Wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc are my go-to dry white wines for this recipe. My next recommendation would be non-alcoholic white wine, which is widely available. While the wine does really elevate this, chicken broth can be used instead.
- Parmesan Cheese: Grate the Parmesan from a block to ensure it melts well into the soup and tastes the best. I use Belgioioso Parmesan cheese.
- Flavor Enhancers: The soy sauce, hot sauce, and mustard powder are flavor enhancers that can't be tasted outright. I use Frank's Hot Sauce.
- Half and half can be used instead of heavy cream if needed/preferred.
- Kale can be used instead of spinach, give it 2-3 minutes additional cooking time.
- Gnocchi Substitutes: To use potatoes instead of gnocchi, try my Sausage Potato Soup. To use tortellini instead, try my Sausage Tortellini Soup.
- Sausage Gnocchi Soup pairs well with No Knead Bread, Buttermilk Biscuits, Cheddar Bay Biscuits, and Ranch Oyster Crackers.
- Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. This recipe does freeze/reheat pretty well.
