Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 (16 ounce) package shelf-stable gnocchi
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  2. Add onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together milk and flour until smooth. Pour the milk mixture into the skillet. Stir in thyme and rosemary. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Return the chicken to the skillet. Stir in the frozen peas and gnocchi.
  6. Cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the gnocchi are cooked through and the chicken is heated through.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • This recipe is a great alternative to traditional crust-topped pot pies.
  • For a richer flavor, you can use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like corn or green beans.
  • This dish is a complete meal, but it pairs well with a simple side salad.
