Description
A simple, wholesome one-pan dinner with roasted vegetables and chicken sausage that cooks in 30 minutes with minimal cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound chicken sausage, smoked or Italian style, sliced into 1-inch rounds
- 1 large bell pepper (any color), chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium red onion, chopped into 1-inch wedges
- 1 small zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced into half-moons
- 1 small yellow squash, halved lengthwise and sliced into half-moons
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for a smoky depth)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat it to 425°F (220°C).
- On a large, rimmed baking sheet, combine the sliced chicken sausage, bell pepper, red onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and baby potatoes.
- Drizzle everything with the olive oil and sprinkle with the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper.
- Use your hands or a large spoon to toss everything together until all the ingredients are evenly coated in the oil and seasonings.
- Spread everything out in a single, even layer on the baking sheet.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the vegetables have beautiful roasted spots.
- Remove the pan from the oven, taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve garnished with fresh parsley.
Notes
Smart Swaps: Use any pre-cooked sausage you like—pork, turkey, or plant-based alternatives. Vegetables can be swapped for broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, or sweet potatoes. For lower carb options, omit potatoes and add more low-carb vegetables. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
