Olive Garden Style Chicken Gnocchi Soup Recipe

By Craig_Allen

I tried this recipe and it is the closest you can come to the soup at Olive Garden. As with the Olive Garden soup, it can taste a little different each time you make it. From beginning to end it takes about 10 min. of prep and 30 min. cook time.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup butter
• 2 cloves of minced garlic
• 1 lb. chicken cubed or large chunks
• 1/3 cup flour
• 1/2 carrot shredded
• 1 stick of celery shredded
• 1/4 cup onion shredded
• 1/2 cup fresh spinach torn in pieces
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 cups heavy cream (I use half and half)
• 3 chicken bullion cubes
• Cracked pepper to taste
• 17.6 oz. of Gnocchi

Preparation

Step 1

On medium heat.
Melt butter in a soup pot, add in the garlic and saute, add your chicken and cook through out
Add flour and stir in flour and mix well until the flour is cooked into the chicken.
Next add your milk and heavy cream
Then add the veggies(Carrots, Celery, Onion, Spinach)
Add three bullion cubes
Add your Gnocchi last it takes 3-4 min. to cook throughout
Mix ingredients well until soup thickens and stirring occasionally. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
