INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

0.25 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

1 large egg

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

1 tsp unsalted butter

4 whole fresh sage leaves

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 cup fresh baby spinach

PREPARATION

• 1

  Stir together ricotta, egg, parmesan, salt, pepper, and flour in a medium bowl until a soft, slightly tacky dough forms.

• 2

  Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, roll into long ropes, and cut into 1-inch gnocchi pieces.

• 3

  Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook gnocchi until they rise to the surface, approximately 2-3 minutes.

• 4

  Season the chicken breast and sear in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 5

  Remove chicken to rest, then melt butter in the same skillet and add sage leaves until they become crisp and the butter browns slightly.

• 6

  Slice the chicken and return it to the pan along with the gnocchi and spinach, tossing until the greens are wilted and everything is coated.
