Pan Fried Salmon and Gnocchi

 It was the "Challenge word" of the day for my family...Gnocchi. This dish is super delicious and very easy to make. And as the weather is getting really cold here, I put a ton of garlic in it so that the family will sleep all nice and cozy. Here is the actual recipe


Pan Fried Salmon and Gnocchi


                                        Gnocchi with Salmon

Ingredients:

  1. 3 salmon filets, cut into 1-2 inch cubes
  2. 1/2 tsp cumin
  3. 1/2 tsp paprika
  4. 2 tsp olive oil
  5. 2 tables spoons butter
  6. 1/3 cup each of chicken stock, plain yogurt, sour cream
  7. 3 tbs sherry
  8. 2 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard
  9. 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
  10. 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
  11. 10oz fresh gnocchi

Boil gnocchi in rapidly boiling, salted water just until it floats. Drain.
Heat 2 tsp oil in a medium skillet, large enough to hold the gnocchi in a single layer.  Add gnocchi and brown lightly on both sides, about 10 minutes.
Heat 2 tsp oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cumin, paprika and sauté 30 seconds.
Add salmon pieces and brown lightly on both sides, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat, cover and cook until salmon is done, about 10 minutes longer. It will be opaque and flake easily when done.
Remove salmon to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Add stock, sherry, dill and mustard to skillet, stirring to get up the brown bits.
When simmering, remove from heat and stir in yogurt and sour cream and 1 tbs Parmesan.
In a serving dish add Gnocchi at the bottom, top with salmon pieces and topped with the sauce.

Enjoy with side of Toasted garlic bread and canned sliced beets
