Creamy Tomato Burrata Gnocchi Skillet

Print Recipe

A comforting one-pan dish featuring tender gnocchi in a creamy tomato sauce with roasted cherry tomatoes, herbs, and luxurious burrata cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) potato gnocchi
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes (mixed colors)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or vegan alternative)
  • 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 ball fresh burrata cheese, torn into chunks
  • Fresh basil, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add cherry tomatoes and cook for 5–6 minutes until blistered and softened.
  2. Add minced garlic, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. Stir until cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Gently fold in the gnocchi and cook for 3–4 minutes, allowing the gnocchi to soak up the sauce.
  6. Turn off the heat, and nestle chunks of burrata on top of the hot gnocchi. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to allow burrata to melt slightly.
  7. Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use coconut cream and vegan cheese for a dairy-free version.
  • For extra flavor, add a splash of white wine before the cream.
  • Serve with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
