Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Serves 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • ½ onion chopped
  • 1 celery rib chopped
  • 1 large carrot chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • ½ tsp celery salt
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chopped rosemary fresh or dried
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup shredded chicken I’m using rotisserie
  • 1 package gnocchi (14 oz)
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • ½ cup grated parmesan

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrot and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir, cooking for 1 minute. Add the celery salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and rosemary; stir to combine.
  • Slowly pour in the chicken stock and milk while stirring, letting the mixture gradually thicken over a few minutes.
  • Stir in the heavy cream, peas, shredded chicken, and whole grain mustard. Turn off the heat.
  • While the filling sits, boil the gnocchi until they float to the top of the pot. Drain well, making sure there’s no excess water.
  • Assemble the pot pie in a small baking dish (mine is 8.5 x 6.5 inches): spoon the filling into the dish first, then scatter the cooked gnocchi over top. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and finish with the grated parmesan.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, then broil for 1–2 minutes if you’d like the top extra golden.
