Instructions
Creating Tasty Garlic Butter Parmesan Fried Gnocchi can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Cook the Gnocchi: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to package instructions until they float to the surface. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2. Heat the Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to foam.
3. Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn.
4. Fry the Gnocchi: Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and gently toss them to coat in the garlic butter. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gnocchi are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
5. Add Parmesan: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the gnocchi, tossing to combine. Allow the cheese to melt slightly, coating the gnocchi.
6. Season: Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as necessary to enhance the flavors.
7. Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
