sheet pan sausage & veggies after roasting

Quick, easy, and loaded with flavor, this sheet pan chicken sausage & veggies recipe is an awesome dinner. You have your protein, lots of vegetables, and the starchy wonderfulness of roasted potatoes.

Ingredients:

Chicken sausage: Fully cooked sausage is sliced and gets beautifully browned on the sheet pan alongside the vegetables. I used Gilbert’s Bourbon Apple.

Broccoli: One of my all-time favorite veggies made even better by roasting.

Red Pepper: Adds great color and flavor.

Potatoes: Either white or red potatoes are excellent. I had Russet potatoes on hand.

Rosemary & Thyme: The best spices for chicken and also wonderful with potatoes. Fresh if you have available other dried herbs are fine.

Garlic Powder: Quick and easy and no burning bits of fresh garlic on the bottom of the sheet pan.

Red Pepper Flakes: For a bit of heat; add more if you like spice.

Instructions:

Start with your potatoes. If you are absolutely opposed to potatoes in the microwave you will add your bite-sized potato pieces to the sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes. Potatoes take longer to get tender and need more roasting time.

I take my scrubbed potatoes and microwave for a few minutes until the potatoes are starting to get tender. The potatoes are then chopped into bite-sized pieces and scattered on the sheet pan.

Chop your broccoli and red pepper into bite-sized pieces and scatter on the sheet pan along with the potatoes.

Chop chicken sausage and add to sheet pan.

If using fresh herbs, give your rosemary and thyme a rough chop, then sprinkle over the sausage and vegetable mixture along with garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.

Sprinkle the entire mixture with olive oil and mix thoroughly to ensure sausage and vegetables are evenly coated.

Roast for 25 minutes until vegetables are tender and roasted.
