Servings: 4
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 medium onion chopped
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
- 2-3 cloves garlic minced
- 3/4 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy/whipping cream
- 1 pound uncooked potato gnocchi
- 5.2 oz/150g Boursin cheese softened
- Salt & pepper to taste
- For serving: fresh chopped parsley optional, to taste
Add the oil and butter to a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted, sauté the onion for 4 minutes.
Add in the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add in the broth, cream, and gnocchi, and give it a good stir. Once it starts to bubble, let it cook, uncovered, stirring fairly often, until the gnocchi has softened and the sauce has thickened considerably (about 7 minutes). You may need to reduce the heat if it's bubbling a lot.
Stir in the Boursin, then take the skillet off the heat and season with salt & pepper as needed and garnish with chopped parsley if using.
- Serves 4 as a main course (it's quite rich) so I recommend serving it with something like a salad. It'll feed up to 6 as a side.
- With a one pan method such as this one, cooking times may vary as every pan/stove is different, so use your discretion as needed.
- The gnocchi releases starch to thicken the sauce as it cooks. No need to pre-cook the gnocchi!
