Creamy Chorizo Gnocchi

Chorizo Preparation: In a large skillet, heat a small quantity of oil over a medium-high flame. Add the chorizo and sauté until it begins to crisp, approximately three to four minutes.
Vegetable Cooking: Incorporate the diced red onion and red pepper into the skillet with the chorizo. Continue to cook over medium heat until the vegetables have softened, about four minutes.
Adding Aromatics and Liquids: Introduce the chopped garlic to the skillet, cooking for an additional minute until aromatic. Following this, add the chicken stock, tomato paste, and cream cheese. Stir thoroughly to combine and reduce the heat to low-medium, allowing the mixture to gently simmer.
Gnocchi Preparation: Simultaneously, prepare the gnocchi according to the instructions on the package, typically boiling in salted water for two to three minutes until they rise to the surface. Drain the gnocchi, reserving a small amount of the cooking water to adjust the sauce consistency later if necessary.
Combining Ingredients: Transfer the drained gnocchi to the sauce in the skillet. Toss gently to ensure the gnocchi are evenly coated with the sauce. Stir in the grated Parmesan and fresh basil, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
Final Presentation: Serve the creamy chorizo gnocchi immediately, garnishing with additional grated Parmesan cheese. Ensure the dish is presented hot, allowing the flavors to fully express themselves.
