Ingredients:
1/4 cup pesto
1 cup light cream
1/4 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
2 cloves garlic minced
500g uncooked potato gnocchi
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Add the pesto, light cream, wine, and garlic to a deep skillet over medium heat.
2. Once the sauce starts to bubble, stir in the gnocchi—cover and cook for 5 minutes.
3. Uncover the pan and give the gnocchi a good stir. Continue to cook it for a couple more minutes, stirring often. You’ll see that the sauce will thicken quickly as the gnocchi releases more starch.
4. Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, stir in the parmesan cheese. Add wine if the sauce gets too thick. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
To make this dish extra special, try serving it with a side of fresh salad or a simple green vegetable.
