Best Gnocchi With Chorizo And Corn Recipes

TEX-MEX PANTRY GNOCCHI SOUP

Steps:

• Combine the fire-roasted tomatoes, corn, enchilada sauce, chopped green chiles with liquid and black beans in a large pot over high heat, adding salt and pepper as needed. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes to bring all the flavors together.
• Add the gnocchi, chorizo and queso blanco and cook until the gnocchi has softened and the cheese has melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately garnished with cilantro.

CHORIZO GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Remove the casings from the chorizo, and finely dice the sausage into pieces. Wash the spinach and vegetables. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Finely dice the garlic, onion and bell pepper.
• Add diced onion, garlic and diced chorizo to a skillet with the olive oil. Sauté on medium heat until the onion is soft.
• Add gnocchi, diced peppers, seasoning and halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Sauté for a few minutes, until the tomatoes and gnocchi are soft.
• Lastly, add spinach and stir. Allow the leaves to wilt down. Remove the dish from the heat, and add any seasoning as needed.

SUPER SUMMERY CORN GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for cooking at medium heat and lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the corn and chiles, turning every few minutes, until the corn is tender and browned in spots and the chiles are nicely charred, about 8 minutes for the corn and about 4 minutes for the chiles. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool slightly.
• When they are cool enough to handle, stem and deseed the chiles (keep some of the seeds if you prefer a spicier dish). Finely chop the chiles and transfer to a medium bowl. Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the kernels off the corn cobs. Using the back of the knife, scrape along the cobs to release the starchy, milky liquid and any remaining kernels. Using a slotted spoon, transfer half the kernels to the same bowl as the chiles and set aside; keep the remaining half of the kernels and the corn "milk" separate. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the leeks, a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, turmeric and coriander and cook until the garlic is tender and the spices are lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes more. Stir in the reserved corn kernels and corn "milk" and cook until warmed through. Stir in the broth, half-and-half and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, bring the mixture to a simmer and then remove from the heat.
• Use an immersion blender to puree the corn mixture into a very smooth and creamy sauce. Alternatively, transfer to a blender and blend on high speed until very smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Keep the corn sauce warm in the saucepan over low heat.
• When the water boils, salt it and cook the gnocchi according to the package directions. Drain well. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place half the gnocchi in the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to flip the gnocchi and continue to cook until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining gnocchi.
• Just before serving, stir the basil, parsley, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the reserved corn and chile mixture until combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spoon the corn sauce into 4 shallow dinner bowls and place the crispy gnocchi on top. Garnish with the corn and chile salad.

CREAMY GNOCCHI WITH CHORIZO AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo, scallions, garlic and orange, red and yellow peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is browned and has turned the oil red, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste, Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper, then stir and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in the chicken broth, heavy cream and Worcestershire sauce. Next, add the gnocchi and bring to a simmer. Simmer the mixture until the gnocchi has softened and cooked, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan and sprinkle with basil leaves to serve.

CHORIZO & MOZZARELLA GNOCCHI BAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium pan over a medium heat. Fry the onion and garlic for 8-10 mins until soft. Add the chorizo and fry for 5 mins more. Tip in the tomatoes and sugar, and season. Bring to a simmer, then add the gnocchi and cook for 8 mins, stirring often, until soft. Heat the grill to high.
• Stir ¾ of the mozzarella and most of the basil through the gnocchi. Divide the mixture between six ovenproof ramekins, or put in one baking dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella, then grill for 3 mins, or until the cheese is melted and golden. Season, scatter over the remaining basil and serve with green salad.
