Gnocchi with Sausage, Zucchini, and Tomato

This satisfying weeknight dinner comes together in just 30 minutes, thanks to quick-cooking ingredients like fresh tomatoes, sausage, zucchini and store bought gnocchi. After cooking in a skillet, the flavors are enhanced with prepared pesto and fresh basil before hitting the serving bowl.

Ingredients :

    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    8 ounces sweet Italian sausage (about 3 links), casings removed
    1 large or 2 small zucchini (12 ounces), cut into a ½-inch dice (2 cups)
    1 pound mixed tomatoes, such as beefsteak and cherry, coarsely chopped (3 cups)
    Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
    1 package (17.5-ounces) gnocchi, such as DeCecco
    ⅓ cup pesto, homemade or store-bought (such as Buitoni)
    Fresh basil leaves, for serving (optional)

Direction :

    Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Swirl in oil, then add sausage and cook, breaking up pieces with a wooden spoon, until beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they start to break down and release their juices, 3 to 5 minutes.
    Meanwhile, cook gnocchi in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain. Transfer gnocchi to skillet and toss to coat, adding pasta water as needed to create a silky sauce. Season to taste. Stir in pesto, sprinkle with basil, and serve immediately.
