Mushroom Sausage Sheet Pan Gnocchi
Description
This Mushroom Sausage Sheet Pan Gnocchi starts by preheating the oven to 450°F and preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper. Fresh sausage is broken into bite-size pieces and combined with gnocchi, sliced cremini or shiitake mushrooms, shallots, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. The mixture is evenly spread on the baking sheet to ensure roasting rather than steaming.
Roasting for 25 to 30 minutes allows the gnocchi to become plump and golden while the sausage cooks thoroughly. The olive oil promotes browning and prevents dryness. Once baked, the dish is garnished with chopped parsley and a generous sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese, adding herbal freshness and a sharp, savory finish.
This one-pan dish offers a satisfying texture contrast from the crispy gnocchi surface and tender interiors, complementing the savory sausage and earthy mushrooms. It serves well as a hearty dinner or casual meal.
The notes suggest variations in vegetables and sausage types can be used, though cooking times may vary. Olive oil is crucial to avoid dryness. The gnocchi is done when golden and can be crisped under the broiler briefly if preferred, with caution to avoid burning.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces sausage fresh, casings removed
- 1 pound gnocchi fresh or frozen
- 1 pound mushrooms cremini, shiitake or white, sliced
- 2 medium shallot sliced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ teaspoons salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoons black pepper or to taste
- 2 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
Instructions
- Prep the oven and baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss all the ingredients together. Break the sausage into bite size pieces and place onto the prepared baking sheet along with gnocchi, mushrooms, shallots, olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss everything together well and arrange the gnocchi mixture in an even layer on the baking sheet.
- Bake. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the gnocchi are plump and sausage is cooked through.
- Garnish and serve. Immediately garnish with parsley and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve.
Notes
- Different vegetables and sausage varieties may be used but adjust baking times accordingly.
- Removing sausage casings is optional; if kept, cut sausage into 1-inch pieces.
- Olive oil is important to prevent dryness of gnocchi during baking.
- Check gnocchi after 20 minutes; it’s done when golden and plump.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes watching carefully to avoid burning.
