Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 4 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 large or 2 small ribs celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 large shallot or small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

Proteins

  • 1–1/2 cups shredded chicken breast (~1/2 lb pre-cooked)

Liquids & Dairy

  • 4 tablespoons butter or vegan butter
  • 2 cups chicken stock or broth
  • 1 cup milk (any kind, unsweetened almond milk recommended)

Dry & Seasonings

  • 3 tablespoons gluten free flour (or all-purpose flour if not gluten free)
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • Pinch dried thyme
  • Homemade seasoned salt and pepper to taste

Other

  • 12 oz package gluten free gnocchi

Instructions

  1. Saute veggies: Heat a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium-high heat. Melt the butter, then add carrots, mushrooms, celery, and shallots or onions. Sauté until mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates, about 3-4 minutes. Season with homemade seasoned salt and pepper.
  2. Continue sautéing: Lower the heat slightly if needed and continue to sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  3. Add aromatics and seasonings: Stir in the garlic, poultry seasoning, and dried thyme. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is very fragrant.
  4. Thicken the sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to coat evenly. Cook the flour for 1 minute to eliminate the raw taste.
  5. Add liquids: Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Add the milk, then increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  6. Cook the gnocchi: Add the gnocchi to the simmering mixture, stirring to combine. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring frequently, until the gnocchi are tender, about 5-6 minutes.
  7. Finish with chicken and peas: Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen peas, cooking just until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning with more seasoned salt and pepper if needed.
  8. Serve: Ladle the delicious one pot gnocchi chicken pot pie into bowls and serve warm for a cozy meal.

Notes

  • You can use vegan butter and plant-based milk to make this dish vegan-friendly, just substitute the chicken with a plant-based protein or extra mushrooms.
  • If you don’t have gluten free flour, all-purpose flour works just as well.
  • Homemade seasoned salt adds great flavor; use your favorite blend or substitute with a mix of salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat nicely on the stove or in the microwave.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables such as peas or corn for extra variety and nutrition.
