1

• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, fry gnocchi, tossing occasionally, until golden, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop tomato. Finely chop garlic.
• Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. 

TIP: Add extra oil if the gnocchi sticks to the pan. 

Cook the chicken
2

• Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.
• Add garlic, savoury seasoning and tomato, tossing, until fragrant and softened, 1-2 minutes. 

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.

Make the sauce

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the creamy, comforting taste, though some found it overly salty or herby. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple one-pan recipe, perfect for busy weeknights. Frying the gnocchi added extra flavour and texture.
  • Suggestions: Try par-boiling gnocchi first for a softer texture. Add cherry tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavour and acidity.
  • Leftovers: Several customers mentioned it reheated well the next day, making great leftovers.
  • Texture: Some found the pan-fried gnocchi too chewy; consider boiling briefly before frying for a softer result.
