Boursin Baked Gnocchi (5 Ingredients)
Made in just one baking dish, Boursin baked gnocchi is a hands-off recipe perfect for those busy nights when you need an easy dinner. It uses only 5 ingredients that strategically layer flavor to create a cozy and delicious meal.
Ingredients
- 1 oz package cherry tomato 450 g
- 1 oz package gnocchi 450 g
- 1 oz jar marinara sauce 680 g
- 1 block Boursin cheese "garlic and fine herbs" flavor, 5.3 oz, 150 g
- 1 cup basil fresh, chopped
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Halve some of the cherry tomatoes and leave others whole. Add them to a large oven-safe pot, along with all other ingredients.
- Stir: Stir just briefly to combine everything (it's okay if the cheese isn't fully blended).
- Bake: Bake for 15 minutes, stir to mix everything up, then return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes. It's finished when the gnocchi is fork-tender!Serve warm, topped with fresh basil and cracked black pepper.
Notes
- Storage: This dish is best eaten right away, but leftovers can be kept in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge. To reheat it, pop it in the microwave or stir on the stove top with a splash of cream or broth until it comes together again.
- Can I use frozen gnocchi? I don't recommend it because they will release moisture as they cook, watering down the sauce.
- Do you use cooked gnocchi? No, shelf-stable gnocchi is not completely cooked, but it requires a very short cooking time, making it perfect for this application.
