Marry Me Gnocchi
This marry me gnocchi has the bacon, sun-dried tomatoes, and creamy sauce of marry me chicken, but as a tasty side dish.
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound bacon
- 16 ounce package gnocchi
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup freshly shaved Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Place a heavy skillet on the stove; lay bacon slices flat in the cold pan, without overlapping. Turn the stove to medium heat.
- After 5 to 7 minutes, the bacon should start to curl and brown. Use tongs to flip each slice over. Cook the other side until as crisp as you like, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove bacon from the pan; place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop bacon.
- Add gnocchi to the skillet. Do not stir. Cook for about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add chicken broth and slowly pour in cream; stir to combine. Add in Parmesan cheese. Stir to melt. Stir in bacon, sun dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
Notes
Cook’s Note
Taste first; bacon and Parmesan cheese may be salty enough that you won’t need to add additional salt.
