Description

A delicious meal you can prepare in no time – Quick & Easy Gnocchi Chicken Alfredo. Juicy chicken meets creamy cheese sauce. So good!


Ingredients

Scale

some butter or oil for frying
10.6 oz. (300g) chicken breast, cubed
1 medium onion, chopped
23 garlic cloves, minced finely
1/2 cup (120ml) vegetable broth
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. mustard
1 cup (250ml) heavy cream
1.8 oz. (50g) grated Parmesan
17.6 oz. (500g) gnocchi
salt, pepper

some more grated/shaved Parmesan


Instructions

1. Peel the onion and garlic, chop the onion and mince the garlic finely. Clean the chicken breast and cut it into bite-size cubes. Set aside.

2. Heat up a large frying pan with some butter or oil. Add the cubed chicken and fry from all sides until nicely browned and cooked through – takes about 4-5 minutes. Take out of the pan and set aside on a plate.

3. Add some more butter or oil if needed and the chopped onion. Sauté until soft and glossy – for about 2-3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook another minute or so. Deglaze with the veggie broth. Add dried oregano and mustard and mix well. Bring back to a boil, then add the heavy cream and grated Parmesan – mix until everything is well combined. Add the chicken back to the pan, as well as the gnocchi. Reduce the heat and let everything cook for 4-5 minutes until the sauce has thickened nicely, and the gnocchi are hot. Season with salt and pepper to your liking and serve with some more grated or shaved Parmesan.
