Directions
- Pour a generous splash of extra virgin olive oil into a large sauté pan over medium heat. Wait for the oil to shimmer, then add diced shallots, cooking them for 2 minutes until they become translucent and fragrant.
- In a separate large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Once bubbling, gently add the potato gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface—this usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
- Drain the diced tomatoes and add them to the sauté pan alongside chopped parsley, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Mix well and let everything simmer together for 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
- Carefully stir in the dry white wine into the sauce mixture. Let it cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate and the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Gently fold in the cooked lobster meat, stirring to combine with the tomato mixture. Add the heavy cream, cooking on medium-low heat for about 5-7 minutes until the sauce is simmering and beautifully creamy.
- Take the sauté pan off the heat and gently fold in the cooked gnocchi. Add the cold unsalted butter, mixing until it melts and the dish comes together in a luscious sauce.
- Plate the creamy lobster gnocchi immediately and garnish with chives and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for an extra burst of flavor if desired.
