  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup celery, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

  • 1 cup carrots, shredded or julienned
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pound potato gnocchi
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

Instructions

  1. Sauté Onion and Celery: In a large pot, heat butter and olive oil. Sauté onion and celery until softened.
  2. Add Garlic and Form Roux: Stir in garlic, then sprinkle flour over veggies and stir to form a roux.
  3. Simmer Broth and Half-and-Half: Whisk in chicken broth slowly, bring to a simmer, then add half-and-half, chicken, carrots, and seasoning.

  • Rotisserie chicken works well for convenience.
  • To thicken, add more flour or reduce broth slightly.
  • For a creamier version, use heavy cream in place of some half-and-half.
