One-pan Shrimp Scampi With Crispy Gnocchi

Ingredientes

3tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving

1pound gnocchi (fresh, frozen or shelf-stable)

2tablespoons unsalted butter

4garlic cloves, finely grated or minced

½cup dry white wine (or clam juice, or broth)

Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) and freshly ground black pepper

⅛teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving

1pound large or extra-large shrimp, shelled (deveined, if you like)

1lemon

½cup chopped parsley

Instruções

Step 1

In a large, preferably nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add gnocchi to the pan, breaking up any that are stuck together. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, tossing every 1 to 2 minutes, so they get golden and crispy all over. Transfer to a bowl or plate.

Step 2

In the same skillet over medium-high, add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and all of the butter, letting it melt for a few seconds. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add wine, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper and all of the red-pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer, and let the wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add shrimp and sauté until they just start to turn pink, 2 to 3 minutes, depending on their size.

Return gnocchi to the pan and add another ¼ teaspoon salt. Using a Microplane or other fine grater, grate the zest from the lemon into the pan. Add parsley, tossing well. If your pan looks dry, add a splash of water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing to combine, then remove pan from the heat.

Step 5

Cut the naked lemon in two and squeeze in the juice from one half, gently tossing to combine. Taste and add more salt if you like. Cut the remaining lemon half into wedges for serving.

Step 6

Top with more olive oil and more red-pepper flakes, if you’d like, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
