Cook chicken
-
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken (seasoned with smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper).
-
Cook on both sides until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the soup pot to a plate. Chicken doesn’t have to be cooked through; it will continue cooking in the broth.
Cook veggies
- Add chopped onions and carrots to the pot, together with more Italian seasoning. Sprinkle with more salt. Cook the vegetables for about 6 minutes on medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Add sliced zucchini and minced garlic to the pot with veggies and cook for 4 more minutes on medium heat.
Cook gnocchi
-
Add chicken broth (or water) to the pot.
-
Slice seared chicken and add it to the pot. Add gnocchi.
-
Bring the soup to a boiling point and then reduce to a simmer. Cook, covered, for about 10 or 12 minutes or longer until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through.
-
Stir in cream and cook for about three more minutes.
-
Make sure to adjust the seasonings by adding more salt and pepper.
