Sheet Pan Sausage and Peppers with Sweet Potatoes

If you are looking for easy, quick, with easy clean up, this recipe is for you! You know that I am all about the simple recipes that everyone loves, and this one definitely falls into that category.

This recipe comes from the cookbook The Ultimate One-Pan Oven Cookbook by Julia Konovalova. This cookbook is filled with so many great one pan meals! Everything from breakfasts to main dishes to soups, salads and sandwiches and also desserts. It has a great array of recipes that only use one pan – sheet pans, roasting pans, Dutch Ovens and more. I love the concept of this book because one pan means less dishes. And I don’t think any of us will complain about less dishes!

How to Make Sheet Pan Sausage and Peppers with Sweet Potatoes

  1. Start by prepping your ingredients – peel and chop your potatoes, chop your bell peppers and onion and mince the garlic.
  2. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and season with spices. Place them on a sheet pan. Try to get them in as much of a single layer as possible.
  3. Nestle the sausages into the vegetables. With a sharp knife, score each of the sausages 4 to 5 times. This is so that the juices will spill onto the vegetables on the sheet pan, flavoring them.
  4. Roast until the vegetables are soft and the sausages are cooked through. At that point, you can turn the oven to broil to brown up the vegetables and the sausages.
  5. I like to slice the sausages to serve them, but you can also serve them whole alongside the vegetables.

Can You Use Regular Potatoes Instead of Sweet Potatoes?

Yes! I am a sweet potato addict, so I love the sweet potatoes in this recipe, but you could definitely sub in a regular potato. I would suggest a Yukon gold potato, as I think they roast very well.

What Sides Go with Sausage and Peppers?

One of the things I love the most about this sheet pan recipe is that it is a meal in and of itself! You have your protein and lots of veggies, so I am usually happy with it just as it is. If you would like something more, though, here are a few suggestions:

  • Sausage and Peppers go well over rice, so simple white or brown rice would be great to serve alongside.
  • You could also make pasta to serve with the sausage and peppers.
  • You could also make a cold side with a green salad or a cold vegetable salad.
  • Turn it into a sandwich by putting the sausage and peppers on a hoagie roll or bun.

Description

So simple, yet so flavorful, this Sheet Pan Sausage and Peppers with Sweet Potatoes is a dinner favorite! Everything roasts together on one sheet pan, which makes clean up a breeze, too!


Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 2 large bell peppers (red, yellow or orange)
  • 1/2 large onion
  • 8 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 lbs Italian sausages

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  2. Peel the sweet potato and cut into 1-inch pieces.  Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces, and cut the onion into chunks. Mince the garlic.
  3. Place all of the vegetables on a large sheet pan. Sprinkle with the garlic powder, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Drizzle the olive oil over the top, then stir to coat the vegetables with the oil and the spices.
  4. Place the sausages on the sheet pan, nestled into the vegetables. Score each sausage diagonally 4 or 5 times with a sharp knife. This allows the juice to spill from the sausage to the pan, flavoring the vegetables as well.
  5. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the sausages are cooked through (when an instant read thermometer reaches 160ºF). Turn the oven to broil and broil for 2-3 minutes to crisp the vegetables, watching closely to make sure they don’t burn.
  6. Serve with mixed greens, if desired.
