One Pot Gnocchi with Chicken and Spinach

Did not use spinach as I have Kale in the garden to use up


1/2 pint chicken broth - I used an Oxo
2 cloves garlic, minced - I used garlic powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 oz thinly sliced mushrooms (white or baby bellas are good.)
2 chicken breasts cooked and shredded
1/3 (6oz) of fresh potato gnocchi
2 cups baby spinach leaves shredded
50g grated mozzarella cheese

4 spring onions
2 tbsp double cream

Preheat oven to Gas 5 Fan 160 with rack on upper middle position.
In a deep/large and oven-proof skillet add some 1Cal or oil and fry spring onions, mushrooms and garlic.
Add chicken stock, cream and salt/ground pepper to taste.
Add shredded chicken, gnocchi, and spinach to the mixture.
Stir gently until well coated through, 30 seconds.
Sprinkle cheese evenly over the top and bake in oven about 15-20 minutes or until sauce is bubbly at around the edges and gnocchi is tender. If desired, broil 2-3 minutes to further brown the top.
