After a huge period of technical difficulties, losing the battery charger to my camera, (Husbands fault of course) I'm back. YAY!
In a large non-stick frypan add the chilli and basil dip. Once it becomes fragrant add the tomatoes and pour in the glass of wine. The sauce should turn a creamy green. Let this simmer for a few minutes until it starts to thicken.
Once the sauce has thickened slightly add in the chicken and season to your liking. The pot of salted water should be boiling at this point. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water.
So to kick this off again I'm going to start with another lazy girls guide. Warning this is loaded with fat, creams, cheese and all the good stuff. It's not as bad as mac 'n' cheese (promise I'll make that) but it is way yummy.
The lazy girls guide to 15 minute gnocchi
1 x packet of gnocchi
2 glasses of white wine - one for the pot and one for you
100 mls of cream
1 x basil dip, black swan brand is awesome
1/2 a green chilli
1 x punnet of cherry tomatoes - quarted
2 handfuls of rocket
BBQ chicken - breasts chopped roughly
Lemon
Parmesan
Salt & pepper
Fill a saucepan with cold water and add salt to it. The saucepan needs to be big enough to cook gnocchi and put it on a medium heat.
In a large non-stick frypan add the chilli and basil dip. Once it becomes fragrant add the tomatoes and pour in the glass of wine. The sauce should turn a creamy green. Let this simmer for a few minutes until it starts to thicken.
Give the sauce a quick stir and add in the rocket. Mix this into the sauce and then take the sauce off the heat. The gnocchi should be ready, if it has floated to to top of the pan, it's done.
Drain gnocchi, top with sauce, squeeze on some fresh lemon juice, add a few pieces of fresh parmesan and a crack of black pepper and you are done.
Belissimo.
Peace,
Teapot Lou
