Description

A creamy, comforting one-pan dish featuring pillowy gnocchi sautéed in garlic butter, wilted spinach, and topped with melted burrata cheese.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 lb store-bought potato gnocchi
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 5 oz fresh baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 8 oz burrata cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi according to package directions until they float, then drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Stir in cooked gnocchi, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Tear burrata into pieces and place on top of the gnocchi mixture. Cover skillet and let melt for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
