Ingredients

• 1 package (12 ounces) frozen gnocchi
• 1 tablespoon hot chili oil (or use olive oil and a large pinch of crushed red pepper flakes)
• 1/2 small onion, diced
• 1 small red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup packed baby spinach leaves
• 2 teaspoons, minced fresh herbs, preferably a mix, such as rosemary, chives, thyme
• 2 tablespoons each: whipping cream (or milk), crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
• Salt, freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Heat a pan of water to a boil. Add gnocchi and cook until they rise to the top of the water; 4 to 6 minutes.
2. While the gnocchi are cooking, heat the oil, with the crushed pepper flakes if using, in a large skillet over high heat. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring often, until they are charred, 5 minutes
3. Drain gnocchi and add to the skillet along with the spinach and herbs. Cook until spinach wilts, 1 minute. Add cream and cheese, stir to combine and remove from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
