A delicious on skillet pasta meal that comes together in 30 quick minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- ½ cup onion, chopped
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 14 oz petite diced tomatoes
- ⅓ cup chicken broth
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- 16 oz potato gnocchi
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- salt & pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Cook ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat, until beef is browned and onion is soft and translucent.
- Use a spatula or wooden spoon to break up the ground beef into small crumbles as it cooks.
- Drain off any excess fat and discard.
- Add Italian seasoning and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, cream, and gnocchi to the pan, and stir to combine.
- Increase heat to medium high and bring the sauce to a simmer.
- Once the sauce is simmering, cover the pan and reduce heat to low. Cook for five minutes or until gnocchi are cooked through.
- Uncover pan and stir, letting the sauce simmer over low heat. Cook until sauce reduces slightly and thickens, about 5 more minutes.
- Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Cook until cheese is melted.
- To serve, top each serving with a little more shredded Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of freshly chopped Parsley.
