Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

Place the uncooked gnocchi directly from the package onto the sheet pan.

3

Add the sliced bell peppers, whole cherry tomatoes, and red onion wedges to the pan.

4

Drizzle everything thoroughly with olive oil and toss with your hands until every piece is evenly coated.

5

Arrange the mixture in a single, even layer, ensuring the gnocchi are not clumped together.

6

Roast for 20 minutes, giving the pan a gentle shake halfway through to flip the gnocchi.

7

Increase the heat to 425 degrees Fahrenheit for the final 5 minutes to achieve a deep golden-brown crust on the gnocchi.

8

Remove from the oven, drizzle immediately with balsamic glaze, and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.

9

Serve directly from the sheet pan while the gnocchi edges are still crisp.

💡 Chef's Tip

The key to success is the single layer arrangement; if the pan is too crowded, the gnocchi will steam rather than crisp. Do not salt the vegetables before roasting, as this draws out moisture that prevents browning; season with sea salt only after serving.
