To Prepare the Gnocchi
- You will need to start by boiling the gnocchi for a couple minutes in boiling water until they start to float. Drain and set aside.
- Heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan, add the minced garlic. Sauté for a minute or two until garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Add in the gnocchi. Stir, cover, and let it crisp up for 2 minutes. Toss it around and let it fry for a couple more minutes. Add in parsley and a pinch of salt to taste. Remove from heat and and plate.
To Prepare the Salmon
- Preheat oven to 385F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
- Season salmon fillets generously with the salmon seasoning and place them on the baking sheet
- Bake salmon for about 15-20 minutes until salmon internal temperature reaches at least 145F.
To Prepare the Brussel Sprouts
- Start by washing the Brussel sprouts. Cut off the ends and cut them in half
- Drizzle on olive oil. Season with red pepper chili flakes, salt, and garlic powder
- If using an air fryer, air fry at 400F for 10 minutes. If roasting in the oven, bake at 385F for 15-20 minutes along with the salmon
Notes:
- The brand of gluten free gnocchi I used was the Isola Mini GF Gnocchi. You can find this brand at whole foods or online.
- I topped my salmon with some tartar sauce from Primal Kitchen
