Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 shallot
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- chili flakes
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 pound chicken breasts or thighs
- salt and black pepper
- 4 cups broth
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream or whole milk
- 2 cups spinach
- 1/2 cup parmesan
- 1 pound fresh potato gnocchi
- fresh basil or parsley
Instructions
- 1Drain the oil from the sun‑dried tomato jar into a large Dutch oven, then chop the tomatoes and set them aside.
- 2Heat the pot over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot, garlic, Italian seasoning, tomato paste, and chili flakes; sauté, stirring frequently, until the tomato paste darkens and thickens, about 5 minutes.
- 3Add the chicken pieces, toss to coat with the aromatics, and season with salt and pepper. Pour in 4 cups of broth, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove the chicken and shred it with two forks, then return the shredded chicken to the pot.
- 4In a separate bowl, whisk the cream cheese until smooth. Stir the cream cheese into the soup, followed by the heavy cream (or whole milk). Add the chopped spinach, the reserved sun‑dried tomatoes, grated parmesan, and the fresh gnocchi. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gnocchi are tender and the soup is heated through; if the soup becomes too thick, thin it with additional broth as needed.
- 5Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with extra grated parmesan and fresh basil or parsley, and serve hot with crusty bread.
