Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 1 lb (450g) sausage links (such as Italian, chicken, or your preferred type), sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
Vegetables:
- 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes (or regular potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 1 red bell pepper (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 yellow bell pepper (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 medium red onion (cut into wedges)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
Seasonings and Oil:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by heating to 400°F, ensuring an optimal roasting temperature for maximum flavor development.
- Collect potatoes, bell peppers, red onion, and broccoli in a spacious mixing vessel, creating a colorful vegetable medley.
- Slice sausage into uniform pieces and incorporate into the vegetable ensemble, promoting even cooking and distribution.
- Cascade olive oil across the mixture, ensuring each ingredient receives a light, glistening coating for enhanced roasting potential.
- Sprinkle a harmonious blend of garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the ingredients.
- Thoroughly massage seasonings and oil into the vegetables and sausage, guaranteeing comprehensive flavor penetration.
- Transfer the seasoned mixture onto a sheet pan, arranging ingredients in a single, uncrowded layer to facilitate optimal caramelization and crisp edges.
- Slide the sheet pan into the preheated oven, allowing ingredients to roast for 25-30 minutes until potatoes transform to a golden brown and sausage reaches complete doneness.
- Midway through cooking, gently redistribute ingredients to promote uniform browning and prevent potential burning.
- Extract the sheet pan from the oven, allowing ingredients to rest momentarily and develop final flavor concentrations.
- Optional: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley across the dish for a vibrant, herbaceous finish.
- Serve immediately, either directly from the sheet pan or elegantly plated for an inviting presentation.
Notes
- Maximize crispiness by cutting potatoes and vegetables into uniform bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and golden edges.
- Opt for high-quality smoked sausage or chorizo for deeper flavor complexity and extra richness in the dish.
- Prevent sticking by using parchment paper or lightly greasing the sheet pan, which also makes cleanup easier and prevents burning.
- Customize the recipe by swapping protein with plant-based sausages for vegetarian options or adding different herbs like rosemary or thyme for varied taste profiles.
