From the Test Kitchen

It doesn’t get much more comforting than tonight’s chicken and “dumplings,” made with pillowy, bite-sized gnocchi. Our chicken, gnocchi, and winter vegetables all come together in a rich gravy, seasoned with fresh thyme and aromatic spices. (Chefs, your turnip may be red or purple-topped!)
