Ingredients
Scale
1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken thighs
24 oz of fresh gnocchi
2 tablespoons of olive oil
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon of lemon zest
1 cup of chicken broth
4 cups of spinach
1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let rest.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, then toss in the fresh gnocchi and cook for about 3-4 minutes until lightly browned.
Step 3: Deglaze the pan with chicken broth, scraping up any brown bits. Stir in lemon juice and zest, and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet along with the spinach. Stir until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Step 5: Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, let it melt slightly, adjust seasoning, and serve.
