Instructions
Potato Sage Gnocchi:
- In a small bowl mix together chopped sage, grated garlic, oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, combine the herb mixture to grated potatoes, 1 egg, flour and cheese. Fold until a soft dough forms. Turn over onto a well floured surface. Shape into a ball and divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each of those pieces gently into a rope, and divide evenly into walnut-sized pillows.
- Here's a tutorial for shaping the gnocchi with a fork if you don't have a gnocchi board.
- In a small pot, bring water to a boil and salt. Add the prepared gnocchi. Once the gnocchi floats to the top, about 4-5 minutes, gently remove and transfer to a dish.
- In the meantime, heat a frying pan with butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Add two leaves of sage. Saute the gnocchi until golden.
Herb Chicken:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a small bowl blend thyme, sage, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Rub all over the chicken and under the skin. Place in a baking dish and drizzle with addition olive oil. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until juices run clear.
Vegetable Soup:
- In a soup pot, heat oil and garlic. Once the garlic turns a golden, add chopped vegetables and sweat them out until the onions are clear and the vegetables have softened.
- Add Vegeta seasoning and 4 cups of water. Bring to a low simmer.
- Shred 3-4 chicken legs and add to the soup, or add as much or as little chicken as you like. Use the reserved chicken for meals throughout the week.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and top with gnocchi. Serve alongside homemade biscuits or muffins.
