Ingredients
- Mild Italian Chicken Sausage (1 lb)
- Olive Oil (2 tbsp)
- Onion (1 cup diced)
- Garlic Cloves (4, minced)
- Italian Seasoning (1 tsp)
- Salt (½ tsp)
- All-Purpose Flour (¼ cup)
- Chicken Broth (32 oz)

- Parmesan Cheese (1 cup, freshly grated)
- Red Pepper Flakes (to taste)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and brown the sausage for 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté onion in olive oil until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt, and sauté for another minute.
- Sprinkle flour over the onion mixture, whisk for a minute, then gradually add chicken broth and heavy cream while whisking to avoid lumps. Bring to a low boil.
- Add gnocchi to the bubbling sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes until they float. Stir in chopped kale until wilted.
- Mix in parmesan cheese and return cooked sausage to the skillet. Adjust seasoning with red pepper flakes and serve warm.
