Instructions

Creating Gnocchi with Chorizo and Creamy Harissa Sauce is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Cook the Gnocchi: In a large pot of salted boiling water, add the gnocchi. Cook according to package instructions until they float to the surface. Drain and set aside.

2. Sauté the Chorizo: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

3. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

4. Add Cream and Harissa: Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the harissa paste. Mix well to combine and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Season the Sauce: Stir in the smoked paprika, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the heat level by adding more harissa if desired.

6. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked gnocchi and crispy chorizo to the sauce. Toss gently to coat everything evenly in the creamy sauce.

7. Serve and Garnish: Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
