Step by step
Cook the aromatics
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic until lightly browned.
Simmer the chicken
Add the roasted red peppers, chicken broth and chicken. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through.
Cook the potatoes
Meanwhile, boil the potatoes until tender. Peel and mash them.
Shape the gnocchi
Mix the flour into the mashed potatoes to form a dough. Divide it into four pieces, roll each into a log, and cut into small gnocchi.
Finish the soup base
Shred the cooked chicken and return it to the pot. Stir in the cream, Romano, pepper and garlic powder. Mix the cornstarch with the water, stir the slurry into the soup and bring to a simmer.
Cook the gnocchi
Add the gnocchi to the simmering soup and cook for 2–3 minutes.
Wilt the spinach
Stir in the spinach until wilted, then serve warm.
