Oh honey, let me tell you about this mouthwatering Tuscan Garlic Butter Chicken and Gnocchi that had my family fighting over the last bite! This isn’t your average chicken dinner – it’s that “make your mother-in-law secretly jealous” kind of meal that’ll have everyone thinking you’ve been taking secret cooking classes.
Listen up, because this recipe is about to become your new dinner party superstar. The tender chicken breast, swimming in a creamy garlic butter sauce, paired with pillowy gnocchi? _chef’s kiss_ Pure magic!
What You’ll Need:
– 4 chicken breasts (pick the pretty ones, darling!)
– 1 package potato gnocchi
– 6 tablespoons butter (calories don’t count when it tastes this good)
– 8 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 cups heavy cream
– 2 cups baby spinach
– 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes
– 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
– Italian herbs, salt, and pepper to taste
Now, let’s get cooking! First things first – season those chicken breasts like you mean it! Don’t be shy with the salt and pepper, we’re not making hospital food here!
In a large skillet (you know, that fancy one you got for Christmas), melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
(P.S. – If you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for daily recipes that’ll make your taste buds dance! Trust me, you don’t want to miss what’s coming next! 😉)
Now for the good part! In the same pan (hello, flavor!), add remaining butter and garlic. Once fragrant, pour in that heavy cream – watch it bubble and get all gorgeous. Add your gnocchi right into the sauce (yes, uncooked – I’m not crazy, just genius). Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes until the gnocchi becomes tender.
Stir in the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and Parmesan. Once the spinach wilts, nestle those beautiful chicken breasts back in. Let everything get cozy together for another 2-3 minutes.
Serve it up in your fanciest dishes (or straight from the pan – I won’t judge), and watch as your family’s eyes light up. This is what I call dinner and a show!
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve made this for company and ended up having to send everyone home with the recipe. It’s THAT good!
