Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic, or more to taste
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pound chicken tenders, cut into 1-inch pieces
½ cup diced onion
½ cup diced red bell pepper
salt to taste
1 ½ cups Chardonnay wine
½ cup marinara sauce
1 (8 ounce) package fresh spinach
1 pound frozen gnocchi
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until garlic starts to turn golden brown, about 1 minute. Add chicken, onion, bell pepper, and salt. Saute until chicken is no longer pink inside and juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes. Add wine and marinara sauce; let simmer until liquid is reduced, about 10 minutes more.
  • Add gnocchi to boiling water.
  • Stir spinach into the chicken mixture and cover the skillet.
  • While the chicken mixture simmers, cook gnocchi until they float to the top, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer gnocchi to the chicken mixture; stir and let simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

This dish is a family favorite! The kids love the gnocchi and the adults love the chicken and spinach. The sauce is always a hit, too. It's a great meal for a busy weeknight.

I love this recipe! The gnocchi is always cooked perfectly and the sauce is so creamy and flavorful. I always add a little extra spinach because I love the way it wilts in the sauce.
