Notes
- CHICKEN GNOCCHI SOUP ON THE STOVE TOP
- Heat a little olive oil in a large pot and sauté the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the chicken, seasonings and broth and bring to a simmer. Bear in mind you will need to add extra chicken broth (an additional 1/2-1 cup) to the stove top version of this recipe.
- Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken using a slotted spoon, dice it, then add back into the broth.
- Add the gnocchi and cook for 2-5 minutes, depending on pack instructions. Stir in the cream, spinach, tomatoes and herbs at the end. Taste the seasoning and serve!
