Ingrediente

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

1 (12-ounce) package refrigerated potato gnocchi

1/3 cup half-and-half plus 2 tablespoons, divided

Instrucțiuni

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add gnocchi; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown in spots and plump, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Do not wipe the pan clean.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the pan over medium heat. Add shrimp; cook, stirring often, until pink on the outside but translucent in the center, about 2 minutes. Add peas; cook, stirring constantly, until just starting to soften, about 1 minute. Stir in the reserved gnocchi, 1/3 cup half-and-half and pepper; cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.

Remove from heat; stir in pesto and the remaining 2 tablespoons half-and-half. Divide the mixture among 4 shallow bowls.
