Gnocchi Chicken Scampi

Heat a medium pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil to sautee chicken breasts. Season chicken with salt and pepper and place in pan. When cooked through, remove from pan and chop into bite size pieces. Set aside.

Boil water, and prepare gnocchi according to package directions. (I use the pre-packaged ones especially when in a rush). Add to water the remaining 1 Tablespoon of oil.

In medium pan, add butter and garlic and saute. Once the garlic is softened, add white wine and simmer. Add chopped chicken back to the pan and let heat up with sauce.

Take drained gnocchi and toss into the chicken mixture as well.

When simmering again, turn off heat and add in parmesan cheese. Mix together and spoon four servings into shallow soup or salad bowls.

Layer basil leaves on top of one another, roll up and slice thinly. Garnish dishes with sliced basil – and serve!
