Cook until soup thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.This soup is a great use of leftover chicken, but in my case I just cooked chicken tenders that I seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic powder in the oven at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes, until done. Also, you can find the gnocchi in the pasta section of your grocery store.Info | Healthy Chicken Breast Pasta Recipesprep:
