Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, onions, and garlic, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened.

Add the chicken broth, milk, and cooked chicken, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the greek yogurt, until smooth.

Cook the gnocchi according to the package or recipe's instructions, and add the cooked gnocchi to the pot after simmering, along with the spinach and basil. Allow to heat until the spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve with freshly grated parmesan.
