Shrimp & Sausage Gnocchi with Asparagus
- 8 ounces, weight Ground Sausage (I Used Cajun Andouille)
- 1 bunch Asparagus - Tough Ends Removed Then Cut Into 1-inch Pieces
- 1/2 cups Onion, Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- 10 ounces, weight Gnocchi
- 1 pound Shrimp, Peeled, Deveined And Tails Removed
- 1/2 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
- 1 Tablespoon Crushed Red Pepper
- 13 cups Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 13 cups Mascarpone Cheese
- Olive Oil, Only As Needed
- Heat a large pan over medium heat.
- Add sausage and brown it, breaking it up with a spoon as you go.
- After about 8 minutes, when sausage is almost browned, add asparagus and onion (the sausage should have created sufficient grease, but if it didnt add a little olive oil).
- Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 5-7 more minutes, until onions are transluscent and asparagus starts to become tender.
- Push sausage, asparagus and onion to one side of the pan.
- Add gnocchi to other half and cook for about 5 minutes until it starts to brown, stirring regularly.
- Add the shrimp and chicken broth and stir everything together.
- Stir often and cook until shrimp is pink, about 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium low, add crushed red pepper, Parmesan and mascarpone and stir until cheese melts and everything is coated evenly.
- Make sure to taste it and see if any additional salt, pepper or crushed red pepper is needed.
- Serve and season with additional crushed red pepper if desired.
