Cook

Step 1. Heat Olive Oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add Onion, Carrot and Celery; cook, stirring, until the onion softens, about 6 minutes.
Step 2. Stir in Garlic, Thyme and All-Purpose Flour. Cook, stirring, until the flour coats the vegetables and smells lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
Step 3. Gradually stir in Chicken Broth, scraping the bottom of the pot. Add Chicken Breast, Salt and Black Pepper; bring to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes.
Step 4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through with no pink inside and the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 5. Add Gnocchi and simmer until tender, about 3 minutes, or according to the package directions.
Step 6. Stir in Heavy Cream and Baby Spinach. Cook over low heat until the spinach wilts and the soup is hot, about 2 minutes; taste and serve.

Tips

Good to know

Check the thickest chicken piece with an instant-read thermometer; it should reach 165°F.

Leftovers

Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days and add a splash of stock when reheating if the gnocchi have thickened the soup.

Swap it

Use boneless, skinless chicken thighs in place of the breast, simmering until they reach 165°F.
