Scale
Ingredients
- 12 ounces fully cooked chicken sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the ingredients evenly.
- Prepare the sheet pan: On a large sheet pan, combine the sliced chicken sausage, broccoli florets, sliced red bell pepper, zucchini half-moons, and sliced red onion.
- Season the ingredients: Drizzle the olive oil over the sausage and vegetables. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if using. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure even coating.
- Arrange for roasting: Spread the mixture out in a single even layer on the sheet pan to allow for proper roasting and caramelization.
- Roast: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sausage and vegetables halfway through the cooking time for even browning and tenderness.
- Finish and serve: Once the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, and the sausage is browned, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, then serve hot for a satisfying meal.
Notes
