Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 package (about 1720 oz) potato gnocchi
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon harissa paste
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

  • Instructions

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the gnocchi according to package instructions. They're done when they float to the top. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken pieces, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they're golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent, then stir in your minced garlic.
  • Add the harissa paste to the onion and garlic, stirring until fragrant.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, and stir to combine. Let it come to a gentle simmer, then add the dried oregano.
  • Toss the cooked chicken back into the pan, allowing it to soak up those creamy harissa flavors. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Gently fold in the gnocchi, allowing everything to mingle together for a couple of minutes.
  • Before serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
