Equipment

  • 1 Frying pan large
  • Knife
  • Chopping board
  • Pot
  • Wooden spoon or Spatula
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 500 g gnocchi
  • 500 g green asparagus
  • 200 g cherry tomatoes
  • 0.5 cups gouda cheese melted
  • 0.5 cups heavy cream
  • 1 bunch parsley
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of pepper
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 chicken breasts

Instructions
 

  • Wash the asparagus, cut off the ends, and peel them if necessary. Slice the asparagus into 2-3 cm pieces. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the asparagus for 2-3 minutes until al dente. Then, shock it in cold water and drain.
  • In the meantime, wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Finely chop the parsley.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large pan. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper, and fry them in the pan until fully cooked (around 7-10 minutes). Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
  • In the same pan, add the gnocchi and fry them over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  • Add the cooked asparagus, halved tomatoes, and parsley to the pan. Stir in one tablespoon of melted Gouda cheese, mix gently with the other ingredients.
  • Add another tablespoon of melted Gouda cheese, stir again, and pour in ½ cup of heavy cream. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Finally, add the cooked chicken back into the pan, stir well, and serve hot.
