15 Minute Creamy Alfredo Gnocchi
This creamy Alfredo gnocchi is a decadent and delicious main course or side dish. The best part? It's made in one pan and ready in under 15 minutes!
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth (or dry white wine)
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 dash Italian seasoning
- 1 pound uncooked potato gnocchi
- 1 cup heavy/whipping cream
- 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Add the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
- Stir in the broth, Dijon mustard, and Italian seasoning. Make sure it's well-combined.
- Add the gnocchi and cream to the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cover the pan. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Remove the lid and stir the parmesan cheese in. Let it cook, uncovered, for another few minutes until the sauce further thickens and the gnocchi is cooked through.
- Season with salt & pepper as needed and garnish with parsley.
Notes
- I used the shelf-stable uncooked gnocchi that you can find in the pasta aisle in grocery stores. No need to cook it ahead of time - it'll cook right in the sauce and the starch from the potatoes will help to thicken the sauce.
- I suggest eating it right away - the sauce can separate when re-heating.
- Serves 4-6 (depending on if it's a main course or side dish).
