Gnocchi With Zucchini Ribbons & Basil Brown Butter image

This recipe is an easy and delicious way to dress up pre-made gnocchi. It is a light and flavourful and the zucchini ribbons make for a beautiful presentation. It also works really well with a flat pasta, like linguine. (Small shells would probably work too.) It is modified from a recipe from "EatingWell Magazine".

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb gnocchi ("fresh or frozen") or 1 lb pasta
2 tablespoons butter
2 medium shallots, chopped
1 lb zucchini, very thinly sliced lengthwise with a vegetable peeler or on a mandoline (about 3 small)
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil or 1/2 cup parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Cook gnocchi according to package instructions until they float, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the butter is beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Add shallots and zucchini and cook, stirring often, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes, salt, nutmeg and pepper and continue cooking, stirring often, until the tomatoes are just starting to break down, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in Parmesan and parsley. Add gnocchi and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Not a fan of basil, so I used parsley instead. Still turned out great.
