Easy Baked Gnocchi

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400F and move the rack to the top third of the oven.

Step 2

Add the butter and onion to an oven-proof skillet and sauté over medium heat for 5-7 minutes or until the onion is softened and lightly browned.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add in the marinara and gnocchi and give it a good stir. Once it starts to bubble a bit, turn the heat off and stir in the basil.

Step 5

Top evenly with the mozzarella and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Broil for a few more minutes to brown the cheese (watch it carefully so it doesn't burn).

Step 6

Let it sit for a few minutes prior to serving, then season with salt & pepper if needed and enjoy! It's extra delicious served with some freshly grated parmesan and more fresh basil if you happen to have some left.
