I recently picked up a pack of gnocchi at Lidl, but wasn’t sure what I was going to make with tit. I had never had gnocchi and after trying this recipe, I’m not sure why I waited so long. This one-pot meal was so good and quick and was easy to make.
In about 30 minutes, this recipe comes together with smoked sausage, white beans, tomatoes, spinach in a delicious broth.
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 package smoked turkey sausage or kielbasa, cut into slices
1/4 – 1/3 cup chicken stock or broth
14.5 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1 Tbsp dried parsley flakes
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
salt & pepper to taste
15.5 oz can white kidney beans or cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups baby spinach coarsely chopped
1 package gnocchi (shelf-stable)
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. In a large oven-safe skillet or dutch oven, heat the olive oil on medium-high heat. Saute the onion, stirring frequently until they’re transparent and starting to turn golden brown (about 5-7 minutes). Add in the garlic and cook for another 1 until fragrant. Add in the turkey sausage and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Add in the remaining ingredients to the pot, except the cheeses. Break apart the gnocchi so they do not stick together. Stir until everything is well combined. Top evenly with the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Place into the preheated oven and bake for 17-25 minutes or until the mixture it hot and bubbly. If desired, broil for 1-2 minutes for a crispy top. Remove from your oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
