INGREDIENTS

0.5 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

1 large egg

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

3 tbsp whole wheat flour

3 oz 93% lean ground turkey

1 tsp ghee

6 whole fresh sage leaves

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, grated parmesan, sea salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and well-incorporated.

• 2

  Gently fold in the whole wheat flour one tablespoon at a time until a soft, slightly tacky dough forms, being careful not to overwork the mixture.

• 3

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil and use two small spoons to drop rounded teaspoons of dough into the water.

• 4

  Boil the gnocchi for 2 to 3 minutes until they float to the surface, then carefully remove them with a slotted spoon and drain.

• 5

  In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground turkey until fully cooked and slightly crispy, breaking it into small crumbles.

• 6

  Add the ghee and fresh sage leaves to the skillet with the turkey, cooking for 1 minute until the sage is fragrant and the ghee begins to brown.

• 7

  Add the boiled gnocchi to the skillet and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side until they develop a golden-brown crust before serving immediately.
