Gnocchi Alfredo with Portobello Mushrooms

1/2 cup unsalted butter

2 cloves garlic, pressed

6oz portobello mushrooms, sliced thin

3 cups heavy whipping cream

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

25 oz package frozen gnocchi, (or fresh)

1 1/2 cups shredded parmesan cheese

parsley, for garnish, optional

In a large skillet, sauté butter with garlic and mushroom slices over medium heat, until softened (about 5 minutes).  Slowly add in heavy cream, whisking while you add it to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat for about ten minutes. Sauce should thicken up slightly.

Add in gnocchi (frozen or fresh) and simmer until cooked through. If the gnocchi is frozen, this could take about 5 minutes. Add in parmesan cheese, stir and sprinkle with a sprig of parsley for garnish. Serve hot and ENJOY.
