Gnocchi

We enjoyed Gnocchi with Mushrooms tonight. I bought some vacuum-packed gnocchi which I cooked in boiling water for just a couple of minutes. I then tossed the cooked and drained gnocchi in some melted butter in a skillet until golden. The browned gnocchi were removed from the skillet and then a mixture of cremini mushrooms, minced shallots, and dried porcini were added to the same skillet and browned. I added some garlic, flour and fresh thyme, stirring until fragrant. Some chicken broth, heavy cream, and wine were stirred in to the mushroom mixture and simmered until thickened. The browned gnocchi were stirred back in to the sauce along with some green peas. The entire mixture was seasoned with salt and pepper and simply garnished with chopped parsley. The gnocchi were served with a green side salad containing baby romaine and baby spinach, dressed with The Best Salad Dressing in the World. Overall, a very satisfying meal!
