Ingredients

  • 1 small green bell pepper
  • 1 small orange bell pepper
  • ½ large red onion
  • 2 pounds Italian sausage mild or hot
  • 5 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • ¾ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400˚ and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
  • Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and slice the peppers and onions into half to one inch slices.
  • Lay the vegetables on the prepared sheet pan and nestle the sausages in between the vegetables. 
  • Drizzle the sausages and vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. 
  • Roast everything in the oven for about 40-45 minutes until the sausages and peppers are browned and cooked through. 

Notes

  • Cut onions, peppers, and potatoes into similar sized pieces for even cooking.
  • Space sausages and vegetables on the sheet pan for even roasting.
 

Substitutions and Variations

  • Sausage - Sweet, mild, hot, or spicy Italian sausages work. Chicken sausage, bratwurst, polish, or chorizo sausages may also be used.
  • Potatoes - Larger potatoes, such as red or russet can also be used but should be cut into smaller pieces.
  • Peppers - Any color of bell peppers can be used or spicy peppers too.
  • Vegetables - Add extra veggies, like asparagus, green beans, brussels sprouts or sweet potatoes.
 

Make Ahead and Storage Instructions

Store sausages and cut veggies on the sheet pan wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator up to 12 hours ahead of time. Take it out of the fridge while the oven preheats. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then cook as directed.
Leftovers will keep in an airtight container for 3-5 days or in the freezer in for up to 3 months.
