Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 16 - 24 ounces Gnocchi (depending on how much sauce you want)
  • 1/2 cup Salted Butter
  • 8 -12 Fresh Sage Leaves
  • 1/2 lb. Pancetta or Bacon (cooked until crispy and chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (plus more for garnish. I love to use shaved parmesan)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Heat a large pot of water on high until it begins to boil. Generously salt the water. Cook gnocchi according to package instructions.
  • While gnocchi is cooking, cook pancetta or bacon until crispy.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. After several minutes, add the sage leaves. Cook until the sage is crispy and the butter starts to turn a golden brown color -- about 3-4 minutes.
  • Drain the gnocchi and add it to the skillet. Toss to coat with butter sauce. Add pancetta (or bacon).
  • Add parmesan cheese.
  • Toss and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve with crispy sage leaves and shaved parmesan cheese as garnish.
