RECIPE
2 large chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 pound uncooked potato gnocchi
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 cups baby spinach
Salt & pepper to taste
Garnish with more grated parmesan and lemon zest
Cut the chicken in half lengthwise. Season each piece with garlic powder and lemon pepper seasoning.
Add oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, add the chicken and sear it on both sides, about 5-6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic to the skillet. Cook for just 30 seconds.
Stir in chicken broth and lemon juice and whisk to remove brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Whisk in the cream.
Now add the gnocchi to the skillet and stir. Make sure the gnocchi is submerged in the liquid. Allow it to cook at a simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
The starch from the gnocchi will thicken the sauce, so don’t let it get too thick. If necessary, thin it with a little water or broth.
Remove from heat and stir in the parmesan cheese and spinach. Stir and let sit until the spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Then add the chicken back to the pan and let it heat back up for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with more grated parmesan and lemon zest.

It looks so yummy ❤. It will take more than 12 minutes to cook this. You said 10 mins for the chicken and 5 minutes for the gnocchi. It means it should take atleast 15 mins to cook.
Sorry I didnt mean to be mean, 😅.
Guaranteed this is a 20-30 min job
Looks good !
Is that commercial chicken???
You know, caged, cruelly tortured and ultimately electrocuted???
Is that what that is????
That looks delicious! Thank you! 💕🎉
That chick. Needs to learn how to say Gnocchi properly
