INGREDIENTS
3 ounces grilled chicken breast
1/2 cup low-fat ricotta cheese
1 cup cooked potato gnocchi
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 tablespoons mixed fresh herbs
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the cooked gnocchi with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and half of the mixed fresh herbs. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 10-12 minutes until they develop a slight crisp on the edges.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and grill it over medium-high heat until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once done, slice into strips or bite-size pieces.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the half-and-half. Allow it to simmer gently for 2 minutes, then whisk in the ricotta cheese until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy. Season with a little salt and pepper.
Add the roasted gnocchi to the saucepan and gently toss to coat them with the garlic cream sauce. If needed, warm through for another minute.
Plate the saucy gnocchi, top with the grilled chicken pieces, and garnish with the remaining fresh herbs. Serve immediately and enjoy your herb-roasted ricotta gnocchi with garlic cream sauce.
