baked gnocchi with tomato and basil

baked gnocchi with tomato and basil
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 pound refrigerated gnocchi
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese


  1. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large heatproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Saute gnocchi until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Heat the remaining oil in the same skillet. Add onion; cook and stir until onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes and water; cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Place gnocchi back in the skillet; add basil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until gnocchi is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  5. Transfer skillet to the preheated oven. Bake until cheese is well browned, about 8 minutes.
