Ingredients

  • 1 lb Gnocchi, fresh or frozen (not boiled)
  • 14 oz Canned crushed tomatoes
  • 8 oz Fresh mozzarella (or low-moisture), torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup Fresh basil leaves
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, ~90 seconds.

  2. 2

    Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in crushed tomatoes.

  3. 3

    Add uncooked gnocchi directly to the sauce. Stir gently until everything is coated.

  4. 4

    Cover and simmer for 8–10 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until gnocchi floats and sauce thickens.

  5. 5

    Remove from heat. Scatter mozzarella and basil over the top. Cover for 1 minute to melt.

  6. 6

    Serve hot straight from the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tools you’ll need

  • 12-inch skillet with lid

  • knife for mincing garlic
