Equipment

  • Skillet with lid

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp. Butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 2/3 cup Chicken or Vegetable Broth
  • 3/4 cup Whole milk or Heavy cream I have used both and turned out great each time
  • 16 oz Gnocchi(uncooked)
  • 1/3 cup Sun-Dried Julienne Tomatoes I used sun-dried tomatoes not in oil. You can add more if you prefer.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan I have used fresh and processed
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice
  • Salt & Pepper to taste If your sun-dried tomatoes have salt added, leave out the salt
  • 2 cups Baby Spinach Trimmed and chopped

Instructions
 

  • In your skillet, melt the butter on a low heat. When butter is melted add your garlic and sauté on a medium heat for no more than 60 seconds.
  • Stir in the whole milk or cream and the vegetable or chicken broth. Bring these ingredients to a simmer.
  • Add the gnocchi and sun-dried tomatoes, stir everything. Cover your skillet and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Check if gnocchi is tender. When gnocchi is tender, stir in the baby spinach, parmesan cheese, lemon juice and salt/ pepper to taste. ** You may not need salt if your sun-dried tomatoes had added salt.
  • When the baby spinach is wilted, remove your skillet from the heat. You can add additional parmesan and enjoy!
