Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the biscuit mix and milk just until it pulls together. Set aside.
• Pour the cans of chicken broth into a saucepan along with the chicken; bring to a boil. Once the broth is at a steady boil, take a handful of biscuit dough and flatten it in your hand. Tear off 1 to 2 inch pieces and drop them into the boiling broth. Make sure they are fully immersed at least for a moment. Once all of the dough is in the pot, carefully stir so that the newest dough clumps get covered by the broth. Cover, and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

• Sprinkle with the flour, then cook, stirring, 2 minutes. (This cooks the flour to soften its raw flavor.) Gradually stir in the stock and cream, and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Once the mixture boils, stir in the gnocchi, reduce the heat to medium and cook until gnocchi and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken in the last couple of minutes.

ITALIAN CHICKEN & GNOCCHI DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel, then season generously with 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt & ground black pepper as desired. Carefully add the chicken to the pot, working in batches as needed to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until deeply golden brown. Transfer to a plate and set aside. The chicken will not be cooked through at this point - that's fine!
• Reduce the heat under the pot to medium. Add in the carrot, celery, onion & potato, seasoning with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add in the garlic & Italian seasoning, stirring to combine, and cook 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
• Dust the flour over the softened veggies, stirring to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until deeply browned. While scraping the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, slowly pour in the chicken stock. Be sure to scrape up any brown bits that may have formed at the bottom of the skillet - that's where the flavor is! Add the bay leaves, parmesan rind, & poultry herbs (I like to use kitchen twine to tie all the herbs together into a little bundle for easy removal; if you do not have kitchen twine, finely chop the herbs). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Add the browned chicken into the pot. Cover & simmer for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, as the soup simmers, prep the DeLallo Gnocchi Kit. Follow Step 1 of package directions to prepare the gnocchi "dumpling" dough - Combine package contents with water in a medium bowl. Stir with a fork until dough begins to form. Knead by hand until dough no longer sticks. Set aside.
• Remove the chicken from the pot & carefully shred. You can do so using 2 forks, or my favorite trick: pop them in a stand mixer & let the paddle attachment do the work for you (I swear this works!). Add the shredded chicken back into the pot along with the half & half, stirring to combine. Bring the soup up to a simmer. Using 2 spoons, freeform the gnocchi dough into tablespoon-sized dumplings, dropping the dumplings into the pot one by one (you could also use a tablespoon measure, just take care not to overwork the dough). Once all the dumplings have been added to the pot, cover & simmer for 5 minutes, until the gnocchi is cooked through. Taste and season with additional salt or ground black pepper as needed.
• : Ladle the chicken & dumplings into individual bowls & finish with a sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley or chives, as desired. Enjoy!
