SHRIMP AND GNOCCHI WITH GARLIC PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook gnocchi according to package instructions; drain well. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add shrimp, salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 2-3 minutes; set aside. To make the garlic parmesan cream sauce, melt butter in the skillet skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, thyme and basil. Cook, whisking constantly, until incorporated, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in half and half and Parmesan until slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, add more half and half as needed; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in shrimp and gnocchi, and gently toss to combine. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

CREAMY SAFFRON SHRIMP WITH GNOCCHI AND CARAMELIZED ONION

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, mushrooms, and brown sugar. Cook and stir until the onion has cooked to a deep brown color, about 10 minutes. Remove the caramelized onions and set aside.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the gnocchi and return to a boil. Cook until the gnocchi floats to the top, about 3 minutes; drain, and keep warm.
• Place the skillet over medium-high heat, and stir in the shrimp. Cook and stir until the shrimp have turned pink on the outside and are no longer translucent in the center, about 5 minutes. Add the caramelized onions, sour cream, paprika, and saffron. Cook and stir until the mixture begins to simmer, then gently fold in the cooked gnocchi, then season to taste with salt.
• Pour the gnocchi into a serving dish, and sprinkle with shredded basil and Parmesan cheese to serve.

GNOCCHI WITH PESTO AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute asparagus and garlic in the hot oil until asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer cooked gnocchi to a bowl using a slotted spoon; set aside.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute shrimp, 2 tablespoons pesto, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in the hot oil until shrimp are fully cooked and opaque, about 5 minutes. Add cooked gnocchi, asparagus, remaining pesto, and remaining lemon juice; stir to combine. Serve.

GNOCCHI ALLA SORRENTINA WITH SHRIMP AND TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Wash the potatoes, pat dry and rub with olive oil. Put the oiled potatoes on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and bake until the potatoes are easily pierced with a small knife, 45 to 60 minutes. Set aside to cool. This may be done up to a day in advance; keep the potatoes in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Peel the potatoes with a paring knife - the skin should easily pull away - and cut into halves or quarters. Pass the potatoes through a ricer or food mill into a large bowl or coarsely grate with a cheese grater.
• Add the flour, Parmesan and 1 teaspoon salt to the riced potatoes. Gently stir to combine the ingredients but retain the crumbly texture. Create a well in the center of the bowl and crack in the eggs. Stir the eggs with a wooden spoon, then gradually incorporate the potato mixture (do not overmix).
• When the mixture forms a ball, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead for 1 minute, then divide into 2 pieces (or cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 24 hours).
• Take a piece of the dough and roll it into a "snake" about 1 inch in diameter. Cut the snake into pieces about 1 1/2 inches in length, sprinkle lightly with flour, and then roll each one over a gnocchi paddle or the backside of a fork to lightly mark with ridges. Continue until all the gnocchi are formed (keep them on a floured baking sheet as you go). Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining gnocchi dough.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a rapid boil.
• Add the oil and garlic to a large skillet over medium heat, placed next to the pot of water. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and cook until lightly pink on both sides but not cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes (the shrimp will finish cooking in the sauce). Remove the shrimp to a bowl.
• Add the tomatoes to the pan, bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Add the shrimp back to the pan and stir to combine. Transfer the sauce to a larger pan or pot so there is enough space for the cooked gnocchi.
• Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and gently stir to prevent sticking. Cook until all the pieces rise to the surface, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer the cooked gnocchi to the pan of tomato sauce along with about 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Cook on high for 1 minute, stirring gently. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and basil.
