Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot of water on high until it begins to boil. Generously salt the water. Cook gnocchi according to package instructions.
  2. While gnocchi is cooking, cook pancetta or bacon until crispy.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. After several minutes, add the sage leaves. Cook until the sage is crispy and the butter starts to turn a golden brown color -- about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Drain the gnocchi and add it to the skillet. Toss to coat with butter sauce. Add pancetta (or bacon).
  5. Add parmesan cheese.
  6. Toss and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve with crispy sage leaves and shaved parmesan cheese as garnish.
