If you are a fan of Olive Garden’s Chicken Gnocchi, you will love this version of this soup! I personally think mine has a bit more flavor, especially when you add in the red pepper flakes. This recipe is super easy to put together and perfect for a cold and cozy day in!

Instructions
Step 1
Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add in your carrots, diced onions, and celery, cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Then add in your minced garlic, give it a stir and cook 1 minute more.
Step 2
Add in your flour, stirring to coat the veggies, creating a roux (what thickens the soup). Cook for 2 more minutes.
Step 3
Slowly, as in splashes at a time, add in the chicken broth and half and half, stirring as you go. Taking this slow helps to avoid breaking the roux and making the soup too thin.
Step 4
Add in your thyme, mustard powder, and cubed uncooked chicken. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, cooking until chicken is fully cooked through, about 10 minutes. Lower soup to a simmer and continue to let it simmer until desired consistency is obtained. The longer you let it sit and simmer, the thicker it becomes.
Step 5
Add in the potato gnocchi and simmer for 5 more minutes. Finally, reducing heat to low, add in your spinach, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Enjoy!
