A rich and flavorful dish combining tender shrimp with creamy Cajun-spiced gnocchi.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 lb gnocchi
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add shrimp and cook until pink, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and Cajun seasoning, stirring well.
  5. Add gnocchi and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. Return shrimp to the skillet and stir in Parmesan cheese.
