Cheesy Pesto Chicken Bake with Gnocchi Ingredients: 1 1/2 lbs of chicken breast 6 ounces fresh mozzarella 1 cup cherry tomatoes 1 tablespoon Alessi Foods Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 tsp Alessi Foods Tuscan Seasoning ((so heavenly)) 1/4 tsp Alessi Foods White Peppercorn 3 tbsps Alessi Foods Pesto 24 ounces Alessi Foods Smooth Marinara Sauce 2 lbs Alessi Foods Gnocchi Directions: Season halved chicken breasts with pepper, and Tuscan seasoning. Boil 6 quarts of water and cook gnocchi. Once it starts to flat (about 6 minutes) it is considered done. In a large skillet, add the olive oil, and seasoned chicken. Cook chicken for 7 minutes per side to develop a nice sear. Once chicken is done, take it out of the pan and add it to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Layer with an even amount of pesto, cheese, and top with tomatoes and additional Tuscan seasoning Place it in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees f. Once chicken is done baking (you will have lots of liquid in the baking sheet). Remove with a spatula and place chicken over the gnocchi and serve warm. When gnocchi is done, drain and add it to a deep-walled casserole dish. Heat the marinara in a saucepan. Pour 24 ounces of marinara over the gnocchi and top with chicken. Serve warm & enjoy!
