Preparation
Step 1
1. Prepare gnocchi: stir together first 8 ingredients in a large bowl until smooth. Very gently fold in flour just until blended. (Dough should be sticky, not loose. If not, stir in additional flour, 1 tbsp at a time, until a sticky dough forms).
2. Spoon dough into a zip-top plastic freezer bag. Snip 1 corner of bag to make a 1/2-inch hole. Squeeze 10 to 12 (1-inch) dough pieces into a pot of simmering salted water; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until gnocchi float. Lightly grease a pan with cooking spray. Transfer gnocchi to pan, using a slotted spoon. Cover with plastic wrap. Repeat with remaining dough.
3. Prepare Chicken: tie together thyme and, if desired, sage with kitchen string. Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add carrots, celery, and herb bundle; cook 5 minutes or until carrots are tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute. Stir in wine; cook 2 minutes or until reduced by half. Sprinkle with flour; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in broth. Add cheese rind, if desired.
4. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, partially covered, 20 minutes or until slightly thickened. Discard herb bundle and rind. Stir in chicken and gnocchi; cook 5 minutes or until hot.
