Equipment

  • Deep Skillet with Lid
  • Saute Tool
  • cutting board
  • chef's knife

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • 2-3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • cup chicken or veggie broth
  • 1 pound potato gnocchi uncooked
  • cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes julienne style
  • ½ cup freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • kosher salt and black pepper
  • 1-2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • fresh basil optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. (Use a skillet with a lid.) Add garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, just until fragrant, then stir in the cream and broth.
  • Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then stir in the gnocchi and sun-dried tomatoes. Cover the skillet and cook for 4 minutes, untouched.
  • Uncover the pan, stir well, and test a gnocchi. Continue to cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until the gnocchi is tender and the sauce slightly thickened.
  • When the gnocchi is tender, stir in the spinach, Parmesan, and lemon juice. Season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice to taste. Once the spinach has wilted, remove pan from the heat.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and more Parmesan, as desired. Serve and enjoy!
