📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Salt generously, then add in the potato gnocchi. Cook for ⏱️ 2-3 minutes, or until the gnocchi floats.

2
Drain the gnocchi in a colander, placing a plate over the top to keep it warm while you prepare the sauce.
3
Heat a large skillet over low-medium heat.
4
Once the skillet is hot, add the butter and stir to melt.
butter1 tablespoon
5
Add the minced shallot or onion and saute until soft, ⏱️ 2-3 minutes.
6
Once the onion is soft, add in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant (⏱️ 30-60 seconds).

7
Immediately pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, and use the bottom of a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Pour in the chicken broth (or wine), and stir to incorporate.

Add in the sun dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

10
Simmer for ⏱️ 4-5 minutes – stirring often – until the sauce is slightly thickened.
11
Add in the cooked gnocchi and parmesan cheese. Stir well.
12
Transfer the spinach into the skillet and stir it into the sauce and gnocchi; it will begin to wilt from the residual heat.
13
Once the spinach has wilted, remove the skillet from the heat and add the lemon juice and fresh basil. Stir well, then taste and adjust seasonings according to your preference.
