Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced

1 tablespoon olive oil

3 cups chicken broth

1 (16 oz) package of potato gnocchi

2 cups fresh spinach

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 lemon (zest and juice)

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Sauté until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Add the chicken broth, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the pot. Bring to a gentle simmer.

        Stir in the potato gnocchi and dried thyme. Let it cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the gnocchi float to the surface.

          Add in the cherry tomatoes and fresh spinach, stirring until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes.

            Pour in the heavy cream, mixing well to combine and allowing to heat through for another minute. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

              Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley for an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy your delicious lemon chicken gnocchi delight!
