Directions
If using frozen gnocchi, cook in a large pot of boiling water according to package directions. Drain, rinse and pat dry.
Heat ½ tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Stir in gnocchi and cook, stirring often, until starting to brown, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl.
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil, squash, shallots and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add broth, currants, sage and pepper and mix well. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, stirring, until the squash is almost cooked through, about 7 minutes.
Stir in spinach, chickpeas and the gnocchi and cook, gently stirring, until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Drizzled with balsamic vinegar on top and serve warm.
