This Chicken and Gnocchi dish combines tender chicken thighs, tossed in the vibrant Big Cove Foods Sunshine Blend, with pillowy potato gnocchi and a velvety, creamy sauce.
Ingredients
6 chicken thighs, boneless, cut into bite size pieces
1 tbsp Big Cove Foods Sunshine Blend
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, roughly minced
- 1.5 lb potato gnocchi (about 4 cups)
- 2-3 big handfuls of fresh spinach
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Parmesan
- Salt to taste
Directions
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with the Sunshine Blend and mix until well coated.
- Set a large pan over medium-high heat; add the olive oil and heat until shimmering. Add the chicken and cook until starting to get nice and brown and cooked through (internal temp 165 F). Remove the chicken from the pan.
- Meanwhile, in a pot of boiling water, cook the gnocchi according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Without wiping out the pan, add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, then add the garlic for another 30 seconds, or until deliciously aromatic!
- Add the broth to the skillet and cook until liquid is reduced but about half the amount. Then add the spinach and allow to wilt.
- Add the heavy cream and cook until starts to simmer. Add the chicken back to the pan and mix into the sauce.
- Gently add in the gnocchi until everything is coated, sprinkle on the parm and serve!
- Salt to taste!

Should be in more stores, Superstore, Sobeys are missing a bet here.
There are meals that I cook with it
That I like
Very much.
Miam!
I got one jar of this, and didn't know what to do with it. It was Taco Tuesday, so I decided to try to miss it while making the beef.
I would have to say that it ended up working, and I found my tacos were enhanced.
Love, love, love Big Cove Foods spice blends.
They have amazing combinations for all kinds of flavours!
We used this combo to try out blends new to us and we've enjoyed every one so far!
My cousin and her husband came to visit me in Dominica West Indies. They brought along Egyptian summer and hot jerk spices from.Big Cove Foods!!! The taste sensation just blew my mind. I made a stirfry of chicken with vegetables using the Egyptian summer. The flavor was sensational. I used the hot jerk on some locally caught fresh mahi-mahi. It was absolutely extraordinary. I have a friend who’s coming to visit me in August and I’m hoping that she will be able to bring me a few of the others as well. I am hooked line and sinker. All the best with your business. I highly recommend these spices.. 💕
These little boxes of spice varieties are great! I’m taking them to Ontario this week and will use them as the perfect little ‘hostess gifts’ I use Big Cove spices all the time. ‘Mary had a’ is my favourite. I use it on everything! (I don’t even like lamb so I definitely don’t just use it for that, lol!)
I repurchased this tasty blend when it was available again. I would say it's a medium heat so it's a nice option to have. We also enjoy the Ghost Taco blend but use it sparingly for that extra kick!
Travelled to Cape Breton ( Baddeck, where I was born and raised ) a couple of years ago and found these amazing spices. Been ordering ever since. Shipping to Toronto covered for an order big enough ( which we do ). Pick it up at the One of a Kind Show when we can. Use on meats and roasted veggies.
Sent an assortment to Yellowknife for a birthday gift. Getting happy reports back. I knew I would.
We missed this blend. It’s been a staple in our house for a number of years. Use it in stirfys and on pork.
Purchased at the OOAK show in TO. Love this blend and made the chicken/rice dish on the site. Making it on repeat!
My second time purchasing Ghost Taco and it’s unreal. Perfect amount of spice and no fillers like starch that a lot of other blends have. Great on chicken and beef.
On top of that my package got stuck with the Canada Post Strike and when they learned I was still waiting they sent me a brand new package through a different shipper. Amazing customer service guys, thanks!
What I love about these spices is that they may come individually packaged, but I still turn on a bit more wild, by mixing one package with another. Have you tried Taco Enhancer with Red Rub? Amazing
