Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
-
Toss sliced shallot with olive oil in a heavy pot or dutch oven until well coated.
-
Arrange sausages atop shallot mixture.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until the sausage is no longer pink in the center, turning sausages occasionally to brown evenly, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
-
Transfer sausages to a platter; cover and set aside.
-
Melt butter in the pot used to cook the sausage over medium heat. Stir in milk and bring to a low simmer.
-
Gradually stir in about 3/4 of the Italian cheese blend until melted; reserve the remaining cheese for topping. Remove cheese sauce from heat, stirring occasionally to keep sauce smooth.
-
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the gnocchi at a boil until it floats to the top, about 3 minutes; drain.
-
Serve sausage and gnocchi topped with cheese sauce and sprinkle with reserved cheese and basil.
