Ingredients

  • 8 oz. (1/2 pkg.) gnocchi, such as Gia Russa
  • 8 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and quartered, 2 Tbs. oil reserved
  • 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 small bunch broccoli raab, stems trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces (4 cups)
  • 1 15-oz. can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

Preparation

1. Cook gnocchi in large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water, and set aside.

2. Heat reserved sun-dried tomato oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, and cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until beginning to brown. Increase heat to high, and stir in broccoli raab. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until broccoli raab begins to wilt. Add sun-dried tomatoes, cooked gnocchi, and chickpeas, and cook 2 to 3 minutes more, or until some gnocchi begin to brown. Stir in reserved cooking water, and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
