Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 3 teaspoons minced garlic (or 4 cloves of chopped, fresh garlic)
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 1¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Zest and juice of one lemon
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 package (17 ounce) gnocchi
- 4 cups fresh baby spinach
- ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Heat olive over in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken tenders with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add to skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side (chicken will finish cooking with the rest of dish). Remove to a separate plate and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium and add garlic. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Add wine and scrape browned bits from bottom of pan. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until wine is reduced, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add chicken broth, cream, zest and lemon juice, rosemary, and thyme. Stir and bring to a simmer. Then stir in gnocchi. Bring to a simmer again and return chicken to skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer chicken to cutting board and slice.
- Add grated Parmesan to sauce and stir, then add in spinach and stir. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened about 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasonings, if needed. Return chicken to skillet and stir to combine. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
- To reheat on the stove: add leftovers to a skillet and warm over medium heat. You may need to add additional chicken broth and/or cream if it seems too thick.
- To reheat in the microwave: microwave over medium power for 2-3 minutes, or until dish is warmed through. If cream sauce is too thick, you can add additional chicken broth and/or cream to thin out.
