A lunch from the oven that saves the day: no cooking and no stress
One of the best solutions for such days is oven-baked gnocchi. It's a dish that you simply assemble on a baking sheet, put in the oven, and wait for the flavors to combine into something truly delicious: the gnocchi becomes slightly crispy, and the additions, such as vegetables, meat, or pieces of fish, become soft and juicy. If you wish, you can sprinkle grated cheese over the ingredients towards
For this dish:
- no pre-cooking, - minimal dishwashing, - everything is prepared on one baking sheet, - the dish is very flexible and also suitable for vegetarians and vegans, if we don't use meat.
What ingredients can we combine gnocchi with?
Gnocchi is a great base, as it pairs nicely in the oven with various types of vegetables (broccoli, zucchini, peppers, onions, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes), cheeses, and additions such as pieces of chicken, pieces of fish (e.g. salmon), olives, dried tomatoes, sausage, or bacon.
Optionally, the ingredients can be seasoned with spices such as garlic, oregano or thyme, ground paprika, and chili for a spicy version.
If you don't want to think, you can simply choose one of these proven combinations:
Classic: gnocchi + broccoli + cherry tomatoes + feta.
Mediterranean: gnocchi + onion + zucchini + bell pepper + feta + olive oil.
Meat: gnocchi + chicken pieces + red onion + parmesan.
Fish: gnocchi + spinach + salmon pieces + zucchini.
Spicy: gnocchi + chorizo + peppers + chili + feta.
