Description
Enjoy a quick and cozy fall dinner with this Speedy Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Sage. This recipe uses store-bought gnocchi and a simple sage-infused butter sauce for a delicious meal in under 15 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (16-18 oz) store-bought sweet potato gnocchi
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10-15 fresh sage leaves
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Optional: Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
Instructions
- Cook the sweet potato gnocchi according to package directions. Typically, this involves boiling them until they float, then draining.
- While the gnocchi cooks, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the fresh sage leaves to the melted butter. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the sage leaves are fragrant and slightly crispy. Be careful not to burn them.
- Once the gnocchi is cooked and drained, carefully add it to the skillet with the sage butter.
- Toss the gnocchi gently to coat it evenly with the sage-infused butter.
- Season with salt and black pepper to your taste.
- Serve immediately, with optional grated Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.
Notes
- Using store-bought gnocchi significantly speeds up this recipe.
- Ensure your sage leaves are dry before adding them to the butter to prevent splattering.
- Adjust the amount of sage to your preference.
