Bring a large pot of water to a bowl. In a saucepan, combine olive oil, garlic, asparagus, and frozen peas. Cook for 7-10 minutes until asparagus is mostly cooked, but still crunchy. Transfer everything in the pan to another bowl.
When the water is boiling, add gnocchi and cook according to package directions. Then drain.
Add butter to saucepan (that you cooked the asparagus, etc in). Let the butter cook for a couple minutes, stirring constantly, until the butter begins to brown. When the butter is brown, add cooked gnocchi and stir.
Add back the asparagus mixture and stir. Transfer to a bowl and top with black pepper and parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
