Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
• 2 shallots, minced
• 1 (18 ounce) package potato gnocchi
• 3 Italian-style turkey sausages, casings removed
• 4 ounces portobello mushrooms, coarsely chopped
• 1.5 cups heavy cream

• 0.5 teaspoon Italian herbs (such as cantanzaro herbs from Savory Spice Shop®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat a heavy skillet over medium high heat and cook sausage until no longer pink, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 7 minutes. Continue to brown the meat and add mushrooms, shallots, butter, and oil. Cook until mushrooms and onions are soft and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Add white wine to the sausage mixture and simmer, uncovered, until wine has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add gnocchi, cream, Italian herbs, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat until sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
