Ree Drummond Creamy Shrimp Gnocchi Food

SHEET PAN GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Place the gnocchi, asparagus, red onion and bell peppers on the prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix the olive oil and pesto in a small pitcher. Drizzle over the pan and toss to coat.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and toss. Sprinkle over the tomatoes. Return to the oven until the gnocchi have begun to brown and crisp, an additional 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle on the Parmesan shavings. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and sprinkle over the basil leaves to serve.

CREAMY SHRIMP AND GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Place a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
• Lightly rinse the shrimp to help separate them and remove any large pieces of ice. Shake off any excess water, then toss the shrimp with the lemon pepper seasoning.
• Add the shrimp to the hot oil, using tongs to move into a single layer. Cover and let cook until the shrimp start to defrost and turn pink, about 2 minutes. Uncover, flip the shrimp and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, flipping for the final minute. Check that the shrimp are pink all over, then remove to a plate.
• Deglaze the skillet with the wine, scraping the bottom. Add the cream, mascarpone, pesto, lemon zest and good pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering for 1 to 2 minutes and allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
• Add the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. When the gnocchi are ready, they will begin to float.
• Drain the gnocchi and add to the sauce along with the frozen peas and the shrimp with any juices. Stir and heat through until the sauce has thickened a little more and everything is combined, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with the basil and lemon slices.

CREAMY GNOCCHI WITH CHORIZO AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo, scallions, garlic and orange, red and yellow peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is browned and has turned the oil red, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste, Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper, then stir and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in the chicken broth, heavy cream and Worcestershire sauce. Next, add the gnocchi and bring to a simmer. Simmer the mixture until the gnocchi has softened and cooked, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan and sprinkle with basil leaves to serve.
