CREAMY PESTO CHICKEN AND GNOCCHI
This came to me one night when I was craving gnocchi. I let it bounce around in my head for a couple of weeks before I made it. My husband swears it was definitely worth the wait. The sauce is creamy and smooth, coating the chicken and gnocchi with a wonderful pesto flavor without the oiliness of straight pesto. Try it with garlic bread or multi-grain bread and butter.

Steps:
- Put a pot on the stove with the chicken broth in it and heat to boiling.
- Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, saute the onion in the oil on medium heat until soft. Add the minced garlic and saute for a minute more until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and saute until lightly brown and most of their liquid is evaporated; push to the side of the pan. Add the chicken and saute, stirring often, until just cooked through. Add the soup, the pesto, and the seasonings to the pan and stir to combine everything thoroughly. Reduce heat and simmer gently until the gnocchi are ready.
- When the broth reaches a boil, carefully add the gnocchi and stir to separate. Add extra water if needed to give the gnocchi plenty of liquid. Cook until the gnocchi are done and float to the surface. Using a spider strainer, transfer the gnocchi to the saute pan. Stir gently to coat the gnocchi. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the cooking broth and stir to combine. Serve in pasta bowls with grated parmesan and bread.

Steps:
- Place a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
- Lightly rinse the shrimp to help separate them and remove any large pieces of ice. Shake off any excess water, then toss the shrimp with the lemon pepper seasoning.
- Add the shrimp to the hot oil, using tongs to move into a single layer. Cover and let cook until the shrimp start to defrost and turn pink, about 2 minutes. Uncover, flip the shrimp and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, flipping for the final minute. Check that the shrimp are pink all over, then remove to a plate.
- Deglaze the skillet with the wine, scraping the bottom. Add the cream, mascarpone, pesto, lemon zest and good pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering for 1 to 2 minutes and allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. When the gnocchi are ready, they will begin to float.
- Drain the gnocchi and add to the sauce along with the frozen peas and the shrimp with any juices. Stir and heat through until the sauce has thickened a little more and everything is combined, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with the basil and lemon slices.
CREAMY CHICKEN GNOCCHI SOUP
This is a favorite for cool weather sports nights when we all eat at different times. After adding the chicken and gnocchi, throw it in a slow cooker on the lowest setting so it is ready when you are. Serve with pesto bread sticks.

Steps:
- Melt butter with olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Cook and stir zucchini, celery, onion, red bell pepper, carrots, and garlic in the hot butter and oil until vegetables are soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir flour into mixture, coating vegetables; cook 2 more minutes.
- Stir chicken broth into vegetables, stirring until flour paste combines with broth and soup is thick and smooth, about 5 minutes. Pour in both kinds of half-and-half; bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, about 5 more minutes. Gently fold chicken, gnocchi, and spinach into soup. Season with salt, black pepper, thyme, and nutmeg. Adjust thickness by adding more chicken broth, if desired.

GNOCCHI WITH CHICKEN, PESTO AND FRESH MOZZARELLA
Quick recipe that can be made with prepared gnocchi and pesto, plus chicken breast and fresh mozzarella. Very easy; so easy, I'm sure it borders on a non-recipe. You're really just combining ingredients. You can also experiment with adding other ingredients, like mushrooms or veggies. Anything that needs to be cooked can probably be added at the chicken stage. I did not add any onions or garlic, because the pesto I used already had both, but if your pesto does not, you can add those with the oil as well.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper; cook and stir in the hot oil until no longer pink in the middle, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken to a bowl using a slotted spoon, retaining drippings in the pan.
- Pour chicken broth into the saucepan. Bring broth to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon; continue cooking until the broth reduces in volume by about half, 7 to 10 minutes. Return cooked chicken to the saucepan. Stir pesto through the chicken mixture; remove from heat.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook gnocchi at a boil until they float to the top, about 3 minutes. Remove gnocchi from the water to a large bowl using a slotted spoon, retaining water in the pot.
- Place the saucepan with the chicken and pesto over the boiling water; cook and stir over the boiling water until warmed completely, about 5 minutes. Pour chicken and pesto mixture over the gnocchi; add mozzarella and stir until evenly mixed.
