Instructions
- Peel, then finely chop shallot.
- Roughly chop spinach.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.

- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

- Reheat the same pan over medium heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp butter, then gnocchi and 2 tbsp water. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, cook in 2 batches, using 1 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp water per batch.) Cover and cook until softened, 3-4 min.
