To make Tuscan Butter Gnocchi, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly grease a 9x12-inch baking pan.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter and add 3 cloves of minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute until aromatic.
Add 2 cups of cherry tomato halves, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, a pinch of kosher salt, ground black pepper and red pepper flakes. Cook until tomatoes begin to burst and juices flow.
Add 4 cups of baby spinach and cook for a little while longer until it begins to wilt.
Add 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 cup of heavy cream, ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese and ¼ cup of chopped mixed herbs. Lower heat to a simmer and cook for about 3 minutes until sauce is thickened and reduced.
Add 2 packages of gnocchi and toss to coat in sauce.
Transfer to a 9x12-inch baking pan. Top with sprinkles from 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake in preheated oven for about 30 minutes until gnocchi is cooked and the cheese is melted and golden on top.
Garnish with any leftover herbs and a few squeezes of lemon to serve!
