Crisp Gnocchi with Brussels Sprouts and Brown Butter
For a fantastic meal that can be ready in 20 minutes, toss together seared gnocchi and sautéed brussels sprouts with lemon zest, red-pepper flakes and brown butter. The key to this recipe is how you cook the store-bought gnocchi: No need to boil. Just sear them until they are crisp and golden on the outside, and their insides will stay chewy. The resulting texture is reminiscent of fried dough. Shelf-stable and refrigerated gnocchi will both work here, but the shelf-stable ones do crisp up a bit better.
Ingredients
  • 1 pound brussels sprouts (or cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower or even cabbage)
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes
  • 1 (18-ounce) package shelf-stable or refrigerated potato gnocchi
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into 6 pieces
  • ½ teaspoon honey
  • Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving
