Ingredients
– 1 pound chicken breast, boneless and skinless
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 cup heavy cream

– 1 cup chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 1 package gnocchi (about 16 ounces)

Instructions
Creating the Flavor-Packed Asiago Chicken & Gnocchi Delight is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cut into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
2. Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and sauté until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
4. Add Cheese and Seasoning: Stir in the grated Asiago cheese and Italian seasoning until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Combine with Gnocchi: Add the cooked gnocchi and sautéed chicken back into the skillet. Stir gently to coat everything in the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
