Pasta with Gorgonzola Sauce and Radicchio Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Pasta and Noodle Recipes. (Pasta with Gorgonzola Sauce and Radicchio Recipe). This rich and flavorful sauce is the perfect match for bitter radicchio. It is incredibly easy to make and goes well with any type of (preferably fresh) pasta. My favorite pasta to have this with is gnocchi. The light and fluffy potato pasta goes well with the rich sauce. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley.

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top 2 to 4 minutes. Drain.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add radicchio; cook and stir until softened about 5 minutes. Transfer radicchio to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap so it continues to wilt.

Step 3

Pour heavy cream into the same skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat about 5 minutes. Add chunks of Gorgonzola and whisk until melted and evenly incorporated about 2 minutes. Season with nutmeg salt and black pepper. Stir in radicchio. Add gnocchi and toss to coat.
