Air Fried Gnocchi with Burst Tomatoes
Makes 2 to 3 servings
A quick and simple meal that will be on the table in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound shelf-stable or frozen gnocchi (cauliflower or potato)
- 1 pint grape tomatoes
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed
- Olive oil, for spraying
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 pinches kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- ¼ cup thinly sliced fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for serving
Preparation
- Put the gnocchi, tomatoes, and garlic into a large mixing bowl. Spray liberally with the olive oil and then sprinkle with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to fully coat.
- Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes to allow the gnocchi to absorb the flavors.
- Transfer the gnocchi-tomato mixture into the basket. Place the basket in the air fryer. Select Air Fry, and set the time to 18 minutes* and the temperature to 375°F. Press Start/Stop.
- When alerted, shake the basket to toss, and replace the basket to finish cooking.
- Transfer to a shallow serving bowl. Toss with the basil, Parmesan, and a drizzle of olive oil.
*Some types and brands of gnocchi take less time. When stopping to shake the gnocchi, take a good look at the coloring of the gnocchi. If they are already browning, then reduce the final cooking time.
