High-Protein Sheet Pan Salmon and Gnocchi Hash

This recipe is simple, uses minimal dishes, and is packed with omega-3s from the salmon and protein from the fish and Greek yogurt sauce.

Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 25-30 minutes Serves: 2

Ingredients

• Protein:
  • 2 (4-5 oz) skin-on or skinless Salmon fillets
  • 41​ cup Plain Non-fat Greek Yogurt (for the sauce)
• Carbs/Veggies:
  • 1 (10-12 oz) package of Gnocchi (Potato or, for lower-carb, Cauliflower Gnocchi)
  • 1 cup Broccoli florets
  • 21​ a Red Onion, cut into wedges or large chunks
• Seasoning & Sauce:
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika (or use Garlic Powder and Italian Seasoning)
  • Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp fresh or dried Dill (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 400∘F (∼200∘C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Season the Vegetables and Gnocchi: In a large bowl, toss the gnocchi, broccoli, and red onion with the olive oil, 21​ tsp of the smoked paprika, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly on one side of the prepared sheet pan.
3. Roast the Vegetables: Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
4. Prep the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry. Rub them with the remaining 21​ tsp of smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
5. Add Salmon & Finish Roasting: After the initial 15 minutes, remove the pan. Stir the gnocchi and vegetables, then nestle the salmon fillets among them. Return to the oven and roast for another 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
6. Make the High-Protein Sauce: While the salmon finishes cooking, mix the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and dill (if using) in a small bowl. Add a tiny splash of water if you prefer a thinner drizzle. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Serve: Divide the salmon and gnocchi hash onto plates. Drizzle the Greek yogurt sauce over the salmon and vegetables.
