Pasta with Gorgonzola Sauce and Radicchio Recipe

Pasta with Gorgonzola Sauce and Radicchio Recipe

  • 1 pound gnocchi
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups chopped radicchio
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 8 ounces Gorgonzola cheese
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  1. 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.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add radicchio; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer radicchio to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap so it continues to wilt.
  3. Pour heavy cream into the same skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Add chunks of Gorgonzola and whisk until melted and evenly incorporated, about 2 minutes. Season with nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir in radicchio. Add gnocchi and toss to coat.
