CHICKEN GNOCCHI WITH BROCCOLI

July 7, 2016

Gnocchi is the lesser known sister of pasta. And well, I am a carb and pasta lover. So if you are like me and waited too late in life to get on the gnocchi train, now is your chance. (What a wonderful train that would be.) In this recipe, the gnocchi will be fully cooked after boiling, but we always like to crisp the outsides too. You can just toss them in a skillet with some olive oil or butter for a few minutes over medium heat. And do not forget a batch of romesco.

CHICKEN GNOCCHI WITH BROCCOLI
Serves 3-4

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 head of broccoli, de-stemed
2 pounds potato gnocchi, cooked al dente
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded
1 batch romesco
1/4 cup parmesan, grated

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli and gnocchi to pan. Season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally, cooking for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and serve with shredded chicken. Top with romesco sauce and parmesan.

    This looks REALLY good and and versatile. You could substitute any vegetable you have – zucchini, cauliflower, summer squash, etc. I would probably also add onions – we’re just onion people! This would be a very healthy meal and simple to make. Thanks for adding to my list of “recipes to make”.
