This gnocchi skillet recipe was inspired by the leftovers in my fridge, which is honestly how a lot of my recipes are born.

1tspItalian seasoning

Fresh shredded Pamesan
Red pepper flakesoptional
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium to medium-low heat.
Once heated, add in the onion and minced garlic, stirring to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is soft.
Add in the Italian sausages and ground them up. I find it actually is easier to pull them apart with clean hands.
Stir occasionally for 3-5 minutes, or until the sausage chunks are no longer pink on the outside.
Add in the kale leaves (removed from the stem and torn up roughly with your hands) and stir to combine. Cook for another 2-4 minutes, or until the kale has visibly shrunk.
Toss in the potato gnocchi, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste (using as much as you want. If you want guidelines, I like 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper).
Pour in the white wine slowly. Stir to combine, then turn off the stove.
Place the skillet in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes.
Top with freshly shredded parmesan and red pepper flakes, if desired.
