Recipe notes:
Gnocchi: I use the Delallo brand to accommodate my toddler's food allergies (it's dairy and egg free). Kielbasa sausage: Make sure to buy pre-cooked smoked sausage, not raw (packaging will specify). You can use any type of sausage you like! Spicy, Italian, chicken apple, andouille, etc. Smoked paprika: You can also use regular paprika but smoked is EXTRA tasty.Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425℉.
- Cut sausage into half-inch thick coins. Roughly chop onion and pepper into large chunks.
- Add uncooked gnocchi, sausage slices and chopped veggies to your sheet pan.
- Drizzle everything with olive oil and sprinkle with seasonings. You can also do this in a large bowl (lid & shake to mix)! I just like doing it on the sheet pan to avoid extra dishes.2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasonings, ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- Mix with your hands or a spoon until ingredients are well coated in seasonings, then pat into a single even layer.
- Place sheet pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy! Optional garnishes: chopped basil, parsley, cilantro, squeeze of fresh lemon juice, grated parmesan.
