A one-pan meal with juicy chicken apple sausage, roasted veggies, and flavorful seasoning—quick, easy, and delicious!
Ingredients
For the Sheet Pan Dinner:
- 1 (12 oz) package chicken apple sausage, sliced into
- ½ -inch rounds
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small red onion, sliced
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)
Optional Garnish:
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp balsamic glaze (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare Vegetables & Sausage: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, bell peppers, red onion, and Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle the chicken apple sausage slices among the vegetables.
- Bake: Place in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Check for Doneness: The sweet potatoes should be fork-tender, and the sausage should be slightly browned.
- Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with chopped parsley and drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Use pre-cooked chicken apple sausage for this recipe. If using raw sausage, ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) before serving.
- Swap out veggies based on what you have—zucchini, carrots, or broccoli work great!
- For extra crispiness, broil the sheet pan for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
