I’ve SO honored to be working withDeLallothis year because they’re a brand I truly trust whole-heartedly. DeLallo Pastas have always been my favorite (duh!), but they also make so many unique and delicious ingredients fromInstant Espresso Baking PowdertoSour Cherry Spread! I believe that DeLallo is helping Moms, Dads, Sons, and Daughters across the country to create delicious recipes for their family, while taking out some of the stress from the equation.

Olive Garden Chicken Gnocchi Soup Recipe (Copycat)

I love going out to eat at restaurants every once in a while (hello, delicious food that you don’t have to cook yourself), but it’s definitely not an everyday thing. There are so many amazing restaurant dishes that I wish I could eat more than just every once in a while, which is why I love copycat recipes!

One of my favorite dishes at the moment is Olive Garden’s Chicken Gnocchi Soup, so of course I had to create a similar recipe that I could make at home. It tastes just like it, except maybe even a little better…because homemade is always better! Well, except for the part where you clean up your own dishes.

How to Make Chicken Gnocchi Soup

Soups are one of my favorite things to make because they’re kind of hard to mess up. Just throw everything in the pot and cook! Plus they always come out soooo delicious.

1. Start by heating up butter in a dutch oven or stock pot.
2. Add in the onions and carrots and saute until onions become translucent. Then stir in the garlic and cook a couple more minutes.
3. Pour in the chicken broth and seasonings, then add the chicken breast and bring to a boil.
4. When the soup starts to boil, place the lid on the pot and reduce heat, and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes.
5. While chicken cooks: Melt butter in a small saucepan and whisk in the flour. Then whisk in the half and half, and let it simmer until it thickens. Stir in the parmesan cheese, remove from heat, then whisk in the heavy cream.
6. Once the chicken is fully cooked through, remove it from the pot and set it aside.
7. Add the gnocchi into the broth mixture and let it simmer until the gnocchi rises to the top (that’s how you know it’s cooked through).
8. Pour the cream mixture from the saucepan into the rest of the soup.
9. Cube the chicken breast then add it into the soup, along with the chopped spinach, and stir until heated.

I just love how creamy and delicious this chicken gnocchi soup recipe turns out. It’s really easy to store leftovers too, either in the refrigerator for a few days, or the freezer for a few months!
