This is the quickest, easiest, midweek lifesaver recipe. There's no substitute for chili crisp oil – get the Lao Gan Ma brand if you can. Along with the sharpness of the capers and the richness of butter and cheese, it's a dream.

Ingredients

  • 2 packages gnocchi , 17.6 oz
  • 6 tablespoonssalteds or un salted or un
  • 4 tablespoons capers in brine , well drained
  • 2 tablespoons chili crisp oil , such as Lao Gan Ma Spicy Chili Crisp
  • 0.75 cups grated Parmesan cheese , or to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a large pan of water to a steady simmer. Add gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain gnocchi, reserving a few tablespoons of cooking water.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until molten and sizzling, about 2 minutes. Add capers and chili crisp oil and sizzle, stirring continuously, about 30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Add drained gnocchi to the skillet along with a couple of tablespoons of reserved cooking water. Stir or shake the pan until gnocchi are well coated with a slick of red oil and everything's piping hot. Serve straight away with freshly grated Parmesan cheese to taste.
