• portions: 4 servings
• temps actif: 5 minutes
• temps total: 20 minutes

Ingrédients

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

16 ounces (454 grams) homemade or packaged gnocchi, fresh or frozen

1 pound (453 grams) asparagus, cut into bite-size pieces

1 cup (150 grams) fresh or frozen peas * see note

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

A large handful of basil leaves, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest

½ cup (45 grams) Parmesan cheese, grated plus more for serving

Instructions

Bring a large pan of water to a boil and add the gnocchi. Boil for about 2 minutes, until they float to the top. Remove onto a large surface like a baking sheet so they don’t stick together. This helps dry them out so they crisp.

Add the butter to a large sauté pan over medium heat. When the butter bubbles add the gnocchi (no need to pre-boil. If using frozen, no need to defrost first) and cook for 2 minutes per side until browned, remove from the pan.

To the same pan add the asparagus and peas, toss and cook for 3-5 minutes until the asparagus is tender. Add the salt, pepper, basil, lemon zest. Add the gnocchi back into the pan, mix well.

Serve with more cheese.
