Soft, pillowy gnocchi sautéed with sweet cherry tomatoes, garlic, and shallots in a buttery, spicy olive oil blend—finished with fresh basil, Parmesan, and creamy burrata. It’s a cozy, quick, and irresistibly indulgent one-pan wonder.
1 tbsp olive oil
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1 lb store-bought gnocchi
½ tsp kosher salt (plus more to taste)
1 shallot, thinly sliced
6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
½ tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan
Fresh basil, to garnish
1–2 balls burrata, for serving
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add cherry tomatoes and cook 6–8 minutes, until blistered and softened. Season with salt and remove from pan.
In the same skillet, cook gnocchi (no need to boil) with 2 tbsp olive oil until golden and crispy on the outside, 7–9 minutes.
Add shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Return tomatoes to the skillet. Add butter and toss everything to coat.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with Parmesan and fresh basil.
Serve topped with torn burrata for that perfect creamy finish.
