Ingredients:
- 4 sausages (Italian, chicken, or your preferred type)
- 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced into strips
- 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prep Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, red onion wedges, broccoli florets, and diced sweet potatoes. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
- Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the vegetables evenly across the prepared sheet pan. Nestle the sausages among the vegetables, ensuring they have enough space to cook evenly.
- Roast: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, and the sausages are cooked through, turning them halfway through the cooking time.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve the sausages and vegetables directly from the sheet pan for a rustic presentation.
