Chicken Gnocchi With Browned Butter Food

CHICKEN GNOCCHI WITH BROWNED BUTTER

Steps:

• In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook chicken breasts in oil 6 to 8 minutes on each side or until golden brown and juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). Transfer to cutting board; let rest 5 minutes. Cut into slices.
• Make gnocchi in boiling water as directed on package; drain.
• Melt butter in same skillet over medium heat; continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until butter is golden brown in color.
• Add gnocchi, spinach and corn to skillet, cooking 3 to 5 minutes or until gnocchi is golden brown and spinach is slightly wilted. Add chicken, and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer or just until heated through. Top with Parmesan cheese just before serving.

GNOCCHI WITH BROWN BUTTER AND SAGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pour a mound of kosher salt onto a rimmed baking sheet. Prick the potatoes all over with a fork and nestle them in the salt; this prevents the potatoes from browning and draws out their moisture. Bake the potatoes until fork-tender, about 45 minutes. Let sit until just cool enough to handle.
• Halve the potatoes lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a potato ricer; discard the skin. Press the flesh through the ricer onto a floured counter or cutting board; let cool 3 to 4 minutes.
• Spread out the potatoes slightly. Beat the egg with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl and drizzle over the potatoes.
• Sprinkle the potato mixture with 1 cup flour and knead until a smooth dough forms, adding up to 1/2 cup more flour if the dough is sticky. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest 10 minutes.
• Lightly flour your surface. Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll into "snakes," about 1/2 inch in diameter. Cut into 1/2-to-1-inch lengths with a bench cutter or knife; transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and lightly dust with flour.
• Make the sauce: Melt the butter in a large skillet over high heat. Cook, stirring, until the butter develops brown flecks and smells nutty. Watch it closely to keep the butter solids from burning. Remove from the heat.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi; wait until they float to the surface, then simmer 30 more seconds. (Taste one to make sure it's cooked through.) Return the brown butter to medium-low heat. Scoop the gnocchi from the pot with a spider or slotted spoon, transfer to the skillet and toss until some of the brown-butter flecks stick to the gnocchi. Add the red pepper flakes, sage and a few tablespoons of the gnocchi cooking water; toss again. Remove from the heat and add half of the cheese. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining cheese.

CREAMY CHICKEN AND GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook gnocchi according to package instructions; drain well. Season chicken with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes per side; set aside. Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Add shallot, and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in garlic and thyme until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and wine, and cook, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in half and half until thickened, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in gnocchi and kale until the kale has wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet; sprinkle with Parmesan. Place into oven and bake until bubbly, about 10-12 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY GNOCCHI WITH BUTTER GARLIC AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Prepare your ingredients first: smash and mince garlic, take thyme leaves off sprigs, cut butter, and open package of Parmesan cheese if needed.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil, stir the water with a wooden spoon, and add gnocchi while water is swirling. (This will help keep gnocchi from sticking.)
• Let gnocchi boil until they all float at the top and give it another minute. Pour water and gnocchi through a fine strainer and let excess water drain off.
• When gnocchi is almost done boiling, preheat a saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Melt butter and start to saute garlic. When garlic starts to golden, add thyme and saute just a couple of seconds until fragrant.
• Carefully add gnocchi, season with some salt, and toss everything to mix. Sear, stirring once in a while, until sides of gnocchi get golden. (If you like it crispier, sear it a little longer until browned.)
• Grate Parmesan cheese over the top, stir, and serve.

GNOCCHI WITH BROWN BUTTER, TOMATOES AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until foaming and nutty brown in colour, about 2 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the tomatoes, asparagus, salt and pepper.
• Cover and cook until the tomatoes begin to split and the asparagus is tender, about 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the gnocchi until it floats to the top, about 3 minutes. (If using pasta, cook for 8 minutes, until al dente.).
• Drain and return to the pot.
• Add the sauce and toss to coat.
• Stir in the cheese and parsley.

RICOTTA GNOCCHI WITH SAGE AND BROWN BUTTER

Steps:

• For the gnocchi: Combine the flour, Parmesan, lemon zest and salt in a medium bowl. Add the ricotta and egg. Mix well with a wooden spoon or your fingers until the dough just comes together, taking care not to overwork the dough, which could cause it to become tough.
• Scrape the dough onto a well-floured work surface and pat into a rough square. Cut the dough into fourths with a bench scraper or knife. Gently roll each piece into a foot-long rope about an inch in diameter, flouring as needed to prevent the dough from sticking to the work surface. Cut each rope into 1/2-inch pieces with a bench scraper or knife and set aside.
• For the sauce: Heat 6 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat in a skillet large enough to accommodate all of the gnocchi without crowding. When the butter begins to foam, add the gnocchi to the skillet and cook, turning as necessary, until they're browned and crisp on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the sage leaves and cook until crisp, 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in 1/2 cup water, the lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
• Remove from the heat and sprinkle in the Parmesan while turning the gnocchi. Let the sauce ingredients emulsify and form a silken coating, about 1 minute. Add more water if the skillet looks too dry. Spoon the gnocchi and sauce into shallow bowls and serve immediately.

BROWN BUTTER GARLIC FRIED GNOCCHI

Steps:

• In a medium sized skillet over medium hight heat add the olive oil. Add in the gnocchi and fry until golden for a few minutes until golden and crisp. Remove the gnocchi from the skillet and set aside.
• Add in the butter. Whisk until it starts to froth turns brown.
• Remove from the heat and add the garlic and thyme. Add the gnocchi back to the butter and toss. Top with parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN WITH GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Combine bacon and onion in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chicken and 1/2 of the lemon juice and cook until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, mix balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, rosemary, red pepper flakes, and remaining lemon juice together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture bubbles, 5 to 7 minutes. Add tomatoes with some of their juice and continue to simmer while chicken finishes cooking.
• Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Pan-fry gnocchi in the hot butter until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add spinach, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes.
• Place bacon and onion onto a serving plate and top with spinach, gnocchi, and chicken, in that order. Drizzle with tomato-balsamic sauce.

SPICY CHICKEN GNOCCHI

Steps:

• For the gnocchi dough: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roast the potatoes until fork tender, about 1 hour, then let cool. When the potatoes are just warm to the touch, scoop out the insides into a food mill and mill into a large bowl. Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, salt, pepper and egg yolks and gently incorporate. Add the flour 1/4 cup at a time until the dough just comes together. Turn out the dough on a floured surface and knead the dough, working quickly, until the dough loses its stickiness and becomes more solid. Shape small portions of the dough into long ropes 1/2-inch wide and cut with a knife into 1/2-inch-long squares. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the gnocchi in batches, stirring gently once or twice to ensure that they are not sticking. Boil until they float to the surface, then drain and set to the side.
• For the garlic cream: In a stockpot over medium heat, melt the butter, then add the garlic and simmer until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the cream, salt and pepper and simmer on low heat, occasionally stirring, for 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, start the gremolata: Rough-chop the Italian parsley and sun-dried tomatoes, then add to a bowl and stir in the lemon zest and garlic. Set to the side.
• To finish: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large oven-safe sauté pan, add the clarified butter and heat to medium-high. Sprinkle the chicken breasts on both sides with the Blackening Seasoning and add to the pan. Sear each side for 3 minutes, then finish in the oven for 3 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice into 4 pieces.
• Add the gnocchi and Gorgonzola cheese to your simmering garlic cream sauce and let cook until the sauce thickens, about 4 minutes. Place the blackened chicken on top and garnish with the gremolata, green onions and Parmigiano-Reggiano.
• Stir together the paprika, sugar, cayenne, granulated garlic and onion, salt, black pepper, white pepper, oregano and thyme in a small bowl.
