Cooking Steps
- Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
- Open one side of the package of walnuts. Using a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pot, crush walnuts in the package until broken into small crumbs (or finely chop if you prefer).
- Add broccoli and gnocchi to the boiling water.
- Reduce heat to medium-high. Cook for 3-4 min until gnocchi and broccoli are tender.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cups) pasta water. Strain and return gnocchi to the pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
- When hot, add half the garlic spread, then swirl the pan to melt. Add walnuts. Cook, stirring often, until toasted, 1-2 min.
- Season with salt, then transfer to a plate.
- Reheat the pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear for 3-4 min per side, until chicken is golden and cooked through.**
- Remove to plate and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining garlic spread to the same pan (used in step 3), then swirl the pan to melt.
- Add onions. Cook, strirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add cream cheese, baslic pesto and reserved pasta water. Cook, stirring often, until slightly thickened and cream cheese is well combined, 1-2 min.
- Remove the pan from heat.
- Add broccoli and gnocchi to pan with sauce, then toss to combine.
- Divide gnocchi mixture between bowls, then sprinkle over walnuts.
If you've opted to add chicken breast tenders, pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear for 3-4 min per side, until chicken is golden and cooked through.** Remove to a plate. Use the same pan to make sauce (in step 4), reducing heat back to medium.
Top plates with chicken.
