Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, ~90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in crushed tomatoes.

  3. Step 3

    Add uncooked gnocchi directly to the sauce. Stir gently until everything is coated.

  4. Step 4

    Cover and simmer for 8–10 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until gnocchi floats and sauce thickens.

  5. Step 5

    Remove from heat. Scatter mozzarella and basil over the top. Cover for 1 minute to melt.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot straight from the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tools you’ll need

  • 12-inch skillet with lid
