Ingredients

1 lb potato gnocchi
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp white miso paste
1 cup cherry tomatoes
3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 cup fresh basil ribbons
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions

First, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook gnocchi until they float; drain thoroughly and pat dry.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter until it turns golden brown and smells nutty.

Add the gnocchi to the pan in a single layer and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms.

Reduce heat to medium, stir in the miso paste and minced garlic, tossing until the gnocchi are evenly glazed.

Add the cherry tomatoes and red pepper flakes, sautéing until the tomatoes begin to blister and release their juices.

Remove from heat immediately, fold in fresh basil ribbons and lemon zest.

Finish by showering with grated parmesan before serving piping hot.
