A comforting one-pot meal featuring creamy Asiago cheese, tender chicken, and pillowy gnocchi. Perfect for cozy family dinners or romantic meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded Asiago cheese
  • 16 oz potato gnocchi
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: crushed red pepper flakes and parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bite-sized chicken pieces, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn!
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow it to heat through gently, then add the shredded Asiago cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.
  5. Add the gnocchi to the skillet, ensuring they’re evenly coated in the sauce. Cover and let them cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  6. Stir the cooked chicken and spinach into the skillet, allowing the spinach to wilt. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Optional: Sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes and chopped parsley over the dish for added flavor and presentation.
  8. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Use freshly grated Asiago cheese for the best flavor and texture.’, ‘If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or cream to loosen it.’, ‘Avoid overcooking the gnocchi to prevent them from becoming mushy.’, ‘For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with mushrooms or zucchini.’]
