Five ingredients and 25 minutes is all it takes for this Italian-inspired supper to come to life.
Ingredient
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 package (16 oz) gnocchi (not frozen or refrigerated)
- 1/4 cup basil pesto
- 1/2 pint (1 cup) grape or cherry tomatoes, halved crosswise
- 1/2 cup mozzarella pearls or bocconcini (small fresh mozzarella cheese balls)
Instructions
- Step 1In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add gnocchi in single layer; cook 7 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crunchy on the outside.
- Step 2Add pesto and tomatoes; cook about 2 minutes or until warm. Remove from heat. Stir in mozzarella pearls. Serve warm.
Recipe Tips
- Can’t find mozzarella pearls? Fresh mozzarella cut into small cubes works just as well.
- For added flavor, add 1 clove chopped garlic to the skillet with the olive oil.
