Creamy Pesto Gnocchi with Bacon & Parmesan

a960ee64fa07928de5d60a702a8b34271 cup chicken broth
¼ cup basil pesto
1 tablespoon butter
1 (16 oz) package potato gnocchi
8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
salt and pepper, to taste (I use ½ teaspoon each)
¼ cup heavy cream
shaved or shredded parmesan, cheese (optional)
Add pesto to chicken broth and stir to combine.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add gnocchi in a single layer and cook for 5 minutes until toasted. Pour in the broth pesto mixture, add cooked bacon, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. When the sauce comes to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 5-7 minutes until the gnocchi are tender and the sauce is thickened. Pour in heavy cream and stir to combine. Serve warm with chicken or a salad and bread. Enjoy!
