Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 medium carrots (sliced into half-moons)
  • 3 celery ribs (diced)
  • 10 ounces cremini mushrooms (quartered)
  • 1 medium yellow onion (finely chopped)
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 3 cups chicken stock (homemade preferred)
  • 1 cup whole milk or half-and-half
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 16 ounces fresh potato gnocchi
  • 2 1/2 cups cooked chicken (torn into bite-sized pieces)
  • 1 cup sweet peas (fresh or frozen)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Grated Parmesan for serving (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or GF flour blend)
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add carrots, celery, onion, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until vegetables soften, about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Add mushrooms and garlic. Cook until mushrooms release their moisture, approximately 5 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle in flour; stir to coat vegetables evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes while stirring constantly.
  5. Gradually whisk in chicken stock followed by milk while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, and nutmeg if desired.
  6. Bring to a gentle simmer before adding gnocchi. Cook uncovered for about 4-5 minutes while stirring occasionally.
  7. Stir in cooked chicken and sweet peas. Simmer until heated through and sauce thickens slightly—about 3-4 minutes.
  8. Fold in fresh herbs like parsley or thyme. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  9. Allow the dish to rest for about 5 minutes before serving it hot. Top with grated Parmesan if desired!
