INGREDIENTS
Serves 2Main Ingredients
- gnocchi2 cups
Seasonings and Sauces
butter1 tablespoon
garlic2 cloves- Italian seasoning1 pinch
spaghetti sauce0.75 cup
Parmesan cheese0.25 cup
fresh basil2 tablespoons
STEPS
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over medium high heat. Drop in gnocchi, and cook until gnocchi float to the top, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Adding salt to the water enhances the flavor of the gnocchi and helps prevent sticking.๐
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and sautรฉ minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Italian seasoning and cooked gnocchi. Pour in spaghetti sauce and cook until sauce is warmed through, about 5 minutes.
Keep a close eye on the garlic to prevent it from burning, which can make it bitter.๐
Add gnocchi to two bowls. Garnish with freshly shredded Parmesan cheese and fresh basil strips.
Serve immediately while warm for the best texture and flavor.๐
๐ก Tips
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of red pepper flakes to the sauce.Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.To make this a more substantial meal, you can serve it with a simple green salad or a side of crusty bread.
