Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 lb Sausage (your favorite kind, such as Italian or Chicken Sausage)
  • 2 cups Bell Peppers (a mix of colors, sliced into strips)
  • 1 cup Zucchini (sliced into 1/2-inch thick half-moons)
  • 1 cup Red Onion (sliced into wedges)
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Large rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). A hot oven is crucial for getting a nice char on the veggies and a good brown on the sausage.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add your sliced sausage, bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion. Drizzling with olive oil first helps the seasonings stick. Sprinkle the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper over the top.
  3. Use your hands or a large spoon to gently toss everything together. You want to make sure every single piece is lightly coated with the oil and spices.
  4. Spread the sausage and vegetable mixture in a single, even layer on a large, rimmed baking sheet. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of roast. Use two pans if you need to.
  5. Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. About halfway through, you can give everything a quick stir to help it brown evenly. The dish is done when the vegetables are tender and caramelized and the sausage is fully cooked through.
  6. Carefully remove the pan from the oven. Serve the Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies hot, straight from the pan.

Notes

For the best results, do not crowd the pan; spread ingredients in a single layer and use two pans if necessary to ensure vegetables roast rather than steam. Cut vegetables uniformly for even cooking. It is recommended to use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic to avoid burning. This recipe is versatile: feel free to use different sausages (like chicken or plant-based) or vegetables (like broccoli, potatoes, or carrots), adjusting cooking times as needed. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days and are best reheated in the oven.
