Bangers And Gnocchi With A Roasted Shallot And Cheese Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter and allow to melt. Add the shallot and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the shallot is fragrant and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook for another minute. Slowly whisk in the milk for a smooth sauce. Add the bay leaf and simmer for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in the Gorgonzola until smooth. Add the gnocchi and stir to coat. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the breadcrumb topping and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Toss sliced shallot with olive oil in a heavy pot or dutch oven until well coated.
• Arrange sausages atop shallot mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the sausage is no longer pink in the center, turning sausages occasionally to brown evenly, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• Transfer sausages to a platter; cover and set aside.
• Melt butter in the pot used to cook the sausage over medium heat. Stir in milk and bring to a low simmer.
• Gradually stir in about 3/4 of the Italian cheese blend until melted; reserve the remaining cheese for topping. Remove cheese sauce from heat, stirring occasionally to keep sauce smooth.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the gnocchi at a boil until it floats to the top, about 3 minutes; drain.
• Serve sausage and gnocchi topped with cheese sauce and sprinkle with reserved cheese and basil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the gnocchi, green beans, pancetta, red pepper and onion to a large bowl and mix to combine. Spread the gnocchi mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Cut 4 tablespoons of the butter into pieces and top the gnocchi mixture with the butter pieces and sage leaves. Place on the middle rack and bake, stirring halfway through, until the gnocchi are tender, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and keep warm. When the gnocchi are tender, drizzle the mixture with the butter and gently stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Scoop the mixture into a large serving bowl and garnish with the Parmesan and basil.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken inside and out; pat dry with paper towels. Loosen skin of breast and thighs and work some salt under skin. Rub remaining salt all over chicken and in cavity (see Notes). Chill, uncovered, at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 375°F Zest lemons. Slice 1 lemon; juice half of the other.
• Pat chicken dry, inside and out. Rub zest under as much of the skin as possible and rub any remaining zest inside cavity. Rub chicken all over with 1 tablespoons olive oil and the thyme. Put lemon slices in cavity.
• Set a V-shaped rack in a heavy roasting pan large enough to hold shallots. Put chicken in rack, breast side up. Add shallots to pan and drizzle with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, turning them to coat.
• Roast chicken, basting every 30 minutes or so, until chicken leg moves easily and skin is brown and crisp, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours (remove shallots after 1 hour and set aside). Tip chicken so juices from cavity pour into roasting pan. Transfer chicken to a carving board and let rest, covered with foil.
• Meanwhile, make sauce: Pour pan drippings into a measuring cup with a pouring lip. Trim tops from shallots and squeeze soft insides into a blender. Pour off all but about 1 tablespoons fat from pan drippings and add drippings to blender. Add 1/2 cup broth and the wine and pulse until smooth.
• Pour sauce into roasting pan. Cook, scraping up brown bits and adding more broth if you want a thinner sauce, over medium-high heat on your biggest burner (or straddling 2 burners) until sauce turns a nutty brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoons reserved Meyer lemon juice, or more to taste. Pour sauce through a fine-mesh strainer into a serving bowl. Carve chicken, discarding lemon slices; serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Toss sliced shallot with olive oil in a heavy pot or dutch oven until well coated.
• Arrange sausages atop shallot mixture.

• Serve sausage and gnocchi topped with cheese sauce and sprinkle with reserved cheese and basil.

Steps:

• For the gnocchi, pare and steam the potatoes until they are fork tender. Puree.
• Blend the cheeses together.
• Blend the cheeses, potatoes and eggs together. Add the flour very slowly, mixing in after each addition. You want a very soft dough, not too stiff with flour or the gnocchi will be heavy and tough.
• Knead, creating a soft dough. Mold the dough into teaspoon size pieces. Place on a floured, inverted fork and press slightly. The tines will make ridges to help the sauce cling to the gnocchi.
• Start a large kettle of salted water to a rolling boil. While waiting on the water to boil, begin the mornay sauce.
• Heat the butter in a sauce pan and add the mushrooms, saute until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add the flour and cook 2 minutes over low heat, adding drops of chicken broth as needed to keep from being too dry while cooking. Stir in the chicken broth and half & half. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened. Stir in the cheese and simmer for 2 more minutes. Keep sauce warm over very, very low heat.
• Drop the gnocchi into the salted boiling water. Cook for 3 minutes after the dumplings begin floating. Drain and place in large serving bowl. Top and toss with Mornay Sauce.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add shallots and garlic; cook and stir 3 to 4 min. or until crisp-tender. Add pancetta; cook 3 to 4 min. or until lightly browned, stirring frequently. Stir in pepper.
• Add pasta sauce; mix well. Stir in peas; simmer on medium-low heat 2 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. Add gnocchi; mix lightly.
• Heat broiler. Spoon gnocchi mixture into 9-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with cheese.
• Broil, 4 inches from heat, 3 min. or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
• Cut the ends off the shallots and peel them. If you are struggling with getting the skin off, make a shallow cut along the length of the shallot and then peel. Place them on a small baking sheet and drizzle them lightly with olive oil.
• Pour on the balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with a good pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Use a rubber spatula or your hands to mix well.
• Lay down the thyme sprigs and cover the pan with foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove and discard the thyme sprigs. Allow to cool slightly and serve.
