Italian Sausage and Gnocchi Soup with Fresh Basil image

This is a recipe I put together years ago based on some of my family's favorite ingredients: gnocchi, Italian sausage, and fresh basil. It has been a family favorite ever since. This is the meal my kids request when they come home from college. Serve with crusty bread.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 (3.5 ounce) links hot Italian sausage
2 (16 ounce) packages gnocchi
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package sliced baby bella mushrooms
2 medium shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup dry red wine
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken stock
½ cup finely chopped fresh basil
1 bay leaf
4 cups fresh baby spinach
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Add 1/2 inch water to a 10-inch frying pan. Place sausage links in the pan, cover, and heat over medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove the lid, turn the links, and cook for another 10 minutes, adding more water as needed to prevent scorching. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Transfer sausages to a cutting board and let cool.
  • While the sausages are cooking, 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.
  • At the same time, heat olive oil in a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms, shallots, and red pepper flakes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are soft and onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add diced tomatoes and Italian seasoning; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in chicken stock, basil, and bay leaf and bring to a low boil. Add spinach, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer; cook for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Slice sausage links and add to the pan. Simmer soup for 5 minutes.
  • Place gnocchi in serving bowls and ladle soup mixture over top. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND GNOCCHI SOUP



Italian Sausage and Gnocchi soup image

This is a very good soup and very filling. I was going to buy regular gnocchi until I found the mini ones and they work perfect in this soup. I also used frozen spinach in this because I almost always have it in the freezer .
