Preparation Steps
Roasting Butternut Squash
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Peel and cube the butternut squash into bite-sized pieces. Toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread the squash on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through.
Cooking Gnocchi
While the squash is roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to package instructions, usually about 2-3 minutes until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.
Sautéing Garlic and Sage
In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and fresh sage leaves, sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Combining Ingredients
Add the roasted butternut squash and cooked gnocchi to the skillet. Toss gently to combine and heat through for another 2-3 minutes. Add grated Parmesan cheese, and stir until melted and well combined.
Serving
Serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan and sage if desired.
