Instructions
How to Make Crispy Gnocchi with Spinach and Feta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to the package instructions, letting them float to the top (about 2-3 minutes). Use a slotted spoon to remove and drain.
- In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the gnocchi in a single layer and allow them to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown. Flip to crisp the other sides for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Toss in the fresh spinach and stir it until it wilts, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Gently toss in the crumbled feta cheese until everything is beautifully combined. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
Drizzle with extra olive oil for added richness. Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
