Ingredients

  • 16oz shelf-stable or fresh potato gnocchi
  • 4 tbsp unsalted European-style butter
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 10 fresh sage leaves
  • 1 tsp chili crisp oil
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 tsp flaky sea salt

Instructions

1
First, pat your gnocchi completely dry with a paper towel to ensure the best golden-brown crust.
2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and add the gnocchi in a single layer, sautéing until crispy and golden on all sides, then remove from the pan.
3
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the butter, swirling continuously until it foams and turns a nutty, deep amber color.
4
Whisk in the miso paste and sage leaves, cooking for 30 seconds until the sage is crisp and fragrant.
5
Toss the crispy gnocchi back into the pan, coating every piece in the silky miso-brown butter emulsion.
6
Finally, finish the dish with a drizzle of chili crisp oil, a shower of Parmesan, and a bright pop of lemon zest to cut through the richness.
