Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup frozen baby peas (not thawed )
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 tsp dried hot red-pepper flakes
1 garlic clove, smashed
3 cups packed baby spinach (3 oz)
1 tsp grated lemon zest
1 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 lb dried gnocchi ( preferably de cecco)
1/4 cup grated parmesan

Directions:

Simmer peas with cream, red-pepper flakes, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a 12-inch heavy skillet, covered, until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add spinach and cook over medium-low heat, uncovered, stirring, until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest and juice.
Meanwhile, cook gnocchi in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (3 tablespoons salt for 6 quarts water) until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta-cooking water, then drain gnocchi.
Add gnocchi to sauce with cheese and some of reserved cooking water and stir to coat. Thin with additional cooking water if necessary.
