Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 1 lb gnocchi (fresh or store-bought)
- 1 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by chopping the chicken and mincing the garlic.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil until it shimmers. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then cook for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté the minced garlic for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chicken broth, and heavy cream. Stir well while scraping up the brown bits from the skillet, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Stir in the gnocchi and cook according to package instructions, until they float. Add the spinach at the end and let it wilt.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese while stirring gently until melted. Serve hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, use the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes to sauté the chicken and garlic. Customize with your favorite vegetables if desired.
