INGREDIENTS

0.5 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

0.25 cup all-purpose flour

1 large egg

3 oz chicken breast

1 tsp ghee

5 whole sage leaves

1 tbsp parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.

• 2

  Gradually fold in the flour until a soft dough forms, being careful not to overmix to keep the texture light.

• 3

  On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into long ropes and cut into 1-inch pieces.

• 4

  Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

• 5

  While gnocchi boils, dice the chicken breast and sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat until cooked through.

• 6

  Remove chicken from the pan, add the ghee and fresh sage leaves, and cook until the ghee is slightly browned and sage is crisp.

• 7

  Add the cooked gnocchi and chicken back to the pan, tossing gently to coat in the aromatic sage butter.

• 8

  Serve immediately topped with a sprinkle of freshly grated parmesan cheese.
