Notes about this recipe

    Needed more gnocchi, carrots, and spinach but less lemon and thyme.

  • skvalentine on January 12, 2026

    This was fine but I don't think I would make it again. As others have mentioned it was pretty oily and heavy, and didn't have as much flavor as I had hoped.

    This may be personal taste but I thought this was a little too heavy. I used the stovetop method and the mini gnocchi. If I try it again I will cut back on the butter and perhaps even skip the gnocchi. The mini gnocchi did not hold up well as leftovers.

    Used stovetop directions (pressure cooker instructions are missing ingredients). 4/5 stars. Would use cream instead of milk next time, cut down on mushrooms by 8-16 oz, butter by 1-2 tbsp, and broth by .5-1 cups.

    Very flavorful but was a bit oily so would reduce butter by a tablespoon.

    Made this for company and it was so satisfying. Two pounds of mushrooms feels like a lot, but they cook down and make the soup feel really hearty. I substituted vegan chicken, vegan butter, vegan parmesan and "NotMilk" brand plant-based whole milk. SO creamy. 10/10 would make again.

    This was very nice. Did it in instant pot and would make again. Didn’t expect it to freeze well but was fine

    Very good chicken soup. I cooked mine on the stove top. I love mushrooms but my husband is slightly allergic to them, so I only put in 8 oz. My package of Anna mini potato gnocchi was 17.6 oz and I used the whole thing, they did not disintegrate or turned to mush when left in the soup overnight. I used full fat milk instead of cream.

    I had to try this after seeing the reviews, and it did not disappoint one bit - one of the best chicken soups I've made. I made the slow-cooker version and did 1.5 recipe, which happily made a ton. I used two packages of regular-sized whole wheat gnocchi instead of the mini-gnocchi. Instead of all heavy cream, I used 1 cup of low fat milk and 2 T heavy cream, which gave it plenty of richness. And even though I used 3 lbs mixed wild mushrooms, somehow I only used 1 T of olive oil to saute them all in a very large pan, and would do it that way again. Just fabulous.

    This was so delicious! I considered doubling the recipe to carry us through to Christmas with no extra cooking but gladly I didn't as this made a good amount. I used the stovetop method and used milk instead of cream and it was perfect. I did need add some extra chicken broth upon reheating but it still taste great.

  • anya_sf on August 04, 2020

    Super hearty, delicious soup. The Instant Pot method worked great and did save time (10 min to come to pressure + 10 min cook time) as I sauteed the mushrooms while the chicken cooked, although that dirtied an extra pan. I used regular-size gnocchi, dried thyme instead of fresh, and omitted the red pepper flakes. 2 Tbsp butter was plenty for the mushrooms. The mushrooms were so good, I'd make them on their own as a side or over pasta.

    A fantastic slow cooker recipe. Substituted zucchini for mushrooms, omitted the butter and reduced the amount of cream. Family loved this one.

  • southerncooker on February 02, 2020

    We loved this soup. I chose the instant pot method. I like that it gives directions for 3 ways to make. I'll definitely make this again. Might try slow cooker next time.

  • Jviney on December 10, 2019

    Loved that Gerard included three different methods for making this soup; slow cooker worked for me today. I used Chardonnay, which brought a slight edge to the soup. My family doesn’t love mushrooms so I cut those back from the 2 lb called for to 4 oz and it was good for us. I’ll make it again.

    This was a great soup the day of making it. The day after (and subsequent days), the gnocchi became too soft and starchy. Best if eaten the same day. Very flavourful!
