Olive Garden Chicken Gnocchi Soup

Very good. Left the gnocchi out since we’re trying to avoid simpler carbs right now, but boy I bet it’s amazing with them. Will have to try it again with gnocchi sometime. I just put enough chicken bouillon in my soup water to make it the flavor I like.

FREAKIN BOMB DIGGITY

I love this. Its very good and I'll be happy to make it again.

One of the easiest soups to make but still really good.

Mmm. It's the best.

Love it!

I don't make this too often bc of the time it takes to make everything is it a bit long for a typical evening for me, and i normally eat pretty light.. but it is super easy to do..and its worth it when i have a craving.

We liked this!

Tasted filling and creamy. Wouldn't change anything about the recipe except maybe a little more broth and I like an extra dose of garlic. Both adults and toddlers enjoy. Prepping the veggies takes the most time. Cooking is quick.

It's good but I can think of 8 other soups I would pick before gnocchi soup.

It's a nice, easy recipe that is extremely filling. I always have a bunch of leftovers and that's lunch and dinner for the week.

My family loved it. I took the short cut and used a package of shredded rotisserie chicken. This was easy and yummy. Next time I would add mushrooms too. I also made a gf and df batch for myself using gf gnocchi and skipping the half and half. Still excellent.

Made it with whole milk and was creamy enough for my liking

It was lovely. I added a leek and toasted the gnocci in the frying pan before adding so they had some crunch. Served with toadted ciabatta for a nice substantial winter evrnimg meal. Also used thighs instead of breast as prefer the flavor.

Husband and I absolutely loved this. We made it with heavy whipping cream, triple the garlic, and more spinach. I also used rotisserie chicken so it cut down on time. Delicious!!

Add spices and peppers

This is SOOOO good on a cold night!! I’ve made it multiple times and it’s always a winner.

Lovely meal. Tastes amazing

Not great

Used regular milk and added a roux. Also added Italian seasoning.

Kids loved it. I used coconut oil with the onions and it gave it a nice flavor. I also added cayenne pepper for heat and the adults liked it even more. Highly recommend!

It was good, but a little bland. I had to add some Italian seasoning.

My spice-loving dad ate this without adding too much extra chili to his bowl and still called it "one of the best soups ever"!

One of the easiest soups I've ever made on top of tasting the best. Definitely use all heavy whipping cream. For the chicken, I boiled it, let it cool 20 mins and then shredded it while letting the vegetables cook. To me, the texture of shredded chicken fits this soup more than diced chicken. I added a tbsp of chicken Better Than Bouillon and it was amazing (didn't add any additional salt, it didn't need it)! Also used a tsp of ground thyme instead of fresh.

Excellent same as OG

It was pretty good. I think next time I will use heavy cream instead of the half and half. It wasn't as velvety as OG's. Kids liked it. Will definitely make it again.

Absolutely delicious! I used 1 cup of half and half and the rest heavy cream, and it was perfect! My toddler is a weirdo and didn't eat the chicken or gnocchi, but he filled up on the rest and was even stealing spoonfuls from my bowl 😅 I took the leftovers to work to share with my coworkers, and now they all think I'm a 5 star chef 👩‍🍳 10 out of 10 would recommend!

So easy and delicious! I like to sub tortellini for gnocchi. I’d also recommend baking the chicken, chopping it, and putting it in the soup near the end so it doesn’t get tough. I tried boiling chopped chicken in the broth and it was pretty chewy.

Placed whole breasts of chicken in the chicken stock and boiled till cooked (about 15 minutes). Removed them and shredded chicken, then replaced it back into the pot. Also used heavy cream instead. Pretty good! Never went to olive garden but I like the soup.

Cut the cream in half and added extra spinach

We are a soup loving family. This was a keeper. I used heavy cream as I did not have any half and half on hand. Rich. But very good

This was good. I used thighs instead of breasts cause I had them on hand. Next time will try to double for plenty of leftovers

Copy cat perfection 👌. Family enjoyed it and it was super fast to make on stove top

Doubled recipe. Air fried the gnocchi sprayed with olive oil while putting the rest of the soup together. Sautéed carrots, celery, onion, and garlic as written. Used 3 cans of cream of chicken + 1 can cream of celery and about 7 cups chicken broth due to not having cream on hand. Shredded 1 whole rotisserie chicken. Added mushrooms at same time as spinach. Did not add additional salt.

Doubled veggies, 6 cups broth, 3 cups cream, Dbl gnocchi

Used lactaid 2 percent and it wasn't thick but still a nice broth base. Also added fresh parsley and doubled the amount of spinach for more veggies

May need a slight more thickening but overall it was nice!

We love this soup so much, we were so excited to try and make it at home. It turned out really good but next time we’re definitely adding more spices, spinach and switching out half the half and half for heavy cream and maybe adding some cornstarch to thicken it up. It tasted great though!!!

Amazing! The perfect fall/winter cozy meal!

Will double recipe next time. Plan to add mushrooms. I used a little celery salt in place of celery and added a little more carrots.

This recipe is incredible. I double the recipe while tripling the garlic and thyme because those flavors are what really make this dish. I use boneless skinless chicken thighs that I roast in the oven seasoned with SPG and then cut into bites. I'll add an extra cup of water if I feel like I need more liquid to cook the gnocchi Used one cup half & half and 2 cups heavy cream instead of 4c half & half. The consistently is rich and perfect. SO MUCH better than olive garden. Just one of the best soups ever.

used a cup of half and half and a cup of heavy cream instead of two cups half and half cooked chicken while sauteing the veggies to get extra flavor sooooo good

Delicious but I want to start it with a roux next time for thicker soup

I used some pork sausage instead of chicken and replaced half the dairy with coconut milk.

So, I added this soup to the list as I have made it several times before with a different recipe. However, I added this version of the recipe before my family could try the original from Olive Garden. Before I got around to making this recipe, they got to try the original and did not care for it as they didn't like the gnocchi in the soup. So I ended up making the soup for myself, and I love both versions, the original and this one. Instead of buying the carrots, onions, and celery separately, I did the trinity and bought them prepped and mixed together already. I know, not like the original, but the same flavors were there. I also agreed with one of the comments as it needed nutmeg or another spice something seemed a little different. When I was done cooking, I made me a bowl, and it tasted very good, but Gnocchi needed a little bit more time to cook, so I turned it down, and what do you know I fell asleep and burnt the soup! Ugh, just my luck. I ate the majority of the soup but couldn't get past the burnt aftertaste, so I will be making this again and hopefully not burning it.

Liked it! Yummy dipped with rolls. Maybe add parsley or nutmeg like in other recipes to see if the flavor is yummier?

Definitely use seasoned chicken. I used more half and half. It was pretty close to Olive gardens soup It's just a bit off

1 cup half and half and 1 cup heavy cream Next time I’ll try no chicken and extra gnocchi and maybe more garlic

the prep is really the most time-consuming part; after that it's ready in an instant. i use some of the salt, pepper, and garlic to season the chicken while it cooks off in the separate pan before transferring it to the soup pot. if you have guests coming over, you let everything simmer on the stovetop for as long as you need and add the cream and spinach once you're ready to serve.

Very good! I used mushrooms instead of carrots and almond milk instead of half and half.

Made this but used half and half instead of heavy cream to cut some fat/calories and added lots more veggies. Delicious!

Well, it wasn't horrible, but it needs a lot of doctoring, because it's pretty bland as written. And unfortunately, I made a double batch because that's how we try to cook/meal plan. The second night we had this it was only slightly better after I added a block of cream cheese, a bunch of Greek seasoning, salt, parmesan, 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes, and Worcestershire sauce. More flavor at least, but still thin and somewhat lacking.

We make this often, adding in lots of extra veggies and mushrooms.

Didn't love the flavor. Came out bland

Used 1 cup of half & half instead of 2 at the end. Also used a cornstarch slurry to thicken it up a bit. Added a bit of cayenne pepper to give it a kick 🌶 Great recipe!

We slow cooked the chicken with chicken broth and basic seasoning and then shredded it. Next time I'll use less chicken - 2 should be enough.

Under cook the chicken so it's not dried out

Add some parmesan cheese and its great!

super good! would recommend making your own gnocchi, we got a pack from kroger and it was weirdly acidic

Guessed measurements for veggies and herbs, turned out great! Has more of a "green" flavor than chicken or pasta. Took closer to an hour to make bc of chopping/grating ingredients.

Requested often! So comforting and easy!

Perfect recipe that is even tastier than Olive Garden

Quick and easy if using precooked shredded chicken, add dash of nutmeg and chicken bouillon. Needs 2 tbsp of cornstarch to thicken to Olive Garden like consistent

The celery needs to be cooked longer than the recipe said, and I used parsley instead of thyme. The chicken was also braised and that made the base for the broth, but with those adjustments it was great.

Chop the spinach so it's not too big. Stock, 1 cup of water and 1 cup of milk

We generally leave the celery out, adding a package of mushrooms instead. It's so good!

Yummy! I tweaked the recipe some and used a red onion instead.

It was really good. I only used 2 chicken breasts, 2 stalks of celery, replaced the half and half with heavy whipping cream, and added just a small amount of butter after serving. my belly is full and my heart is happy
