Creamy tomato and chicken gnocchi
SERVES 4
A tasty one-dish dinner that's bound to be popular with the whole family.
YOU WILL NEED
1tbsp olive oil, for frying
4 small skin-on chicken breasts
1 onion, chopped
500g pack gnocchi
6 sage or basil leaves, plus extra, finely sliced, to serve
1 fat garlic clove, crushed
400g tomato passata
150ml chicken stock
3tbsp crème fraiche
3tbsp freshly grated Parmesan
HOW TO DO IT
1 Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the chicken breasts, skin-side down, and fry for 4 mins until the skin is golden. Turn the chicken and add the onion to the pan. Fry for a further 3-4 mins, stirring the onion occasionally to stop it from catching.
2 Season with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken, add the gnocchi and fry for 1 min, then add the whole sage/basil leaves, garlic, passata and stock.
3 Bring to a fast simmer, then turn down the heat to medium and cook for 3-4 mins until it thickens. Stir in the crème fraiche, then nestle the chicken in the gnocchi. Simmer for 5 mins, until the chicken is cooked through. Serve with Parmesan, the finely sliced sage and a grinding of black pepper.
