Brown Butter Gnocchi
Brown Butter Gnocchi with Roasted Broccoli Florets and Parmesan
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Fresh Broccoli Florets
- Cooking Spray
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 1 lbs. Potato Gnocchi
- 1 oz. Paremsan shredded
- 1 Lemon
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°
- Prepare gnocchi per the package directions. I tend to like my gnocchi a little softer, so I will add a couple minutes to the cook time.
- While the water is coming to a boil, spread the broccoli florets on a large sheet pan and spray with cooking spray and season with salt and pepper. Place in oven and cook for 12 - 15 minutes.
- Begin melting the butter in a large sauté pan on medium heat. You are going to allow the butter to brown. You'll want to keep an eye on it and move the butter a little bit around the pan. It will start to have an amazing nutty or toasted smell. This will take about 8 minutes.
- Once the gnocchi is cooked, drain and add to the brown butter. Allow the butter and gnocchi to cook for another 3 minutes together then add the cooked broccoli.
- Serve and sprinkle with shredded parmesan.
Notes
This can be served in either 2 large servings or as a side dish to any entree. It is great with grilled, baked, or sauteed fish, beef, or pork.
