Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Italian sausage sweet or spicy, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups bell peppers sliced, multiple colors recommended
  • 1 cup red onion sliced into wedges
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 medium zucchini sliced into half-moons
  • 2 cups baby potatoes halved
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Large sheet pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Wash and prep all vegetables by halving the potatoes, slicing bell peppers into strips, chopping onion into wedges, and slicing zucchini into quarter-inch half-moon shapes.
  2. Cut Italian sausage into bite-sized pieces about 1 to 2 inches each. Add sausage pieces to a large mixing bowl along with all prepared vegetables.
  3. Drizzle olive oil over sausage and vegetables, then sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
  4. Spread the seasoned mixture onto prepared sheet pan in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Use two pans if necessary for proper roasting.
  5. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring everything halfway through cooking. Sausage should reach an internal temperature of 160°F and vegetables should be tender with golden-brown edges.
  6. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 to 4 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

Can substitute with chicken or turkey sausage for a leaner option. Cut vegetables in similar sizes for even cooking. Don't overcrowd the pan for best caramelization. Use parchment paper or foil for easier cleanup. Add other vegetables like carrots, Brussels sprouts, or cauliflower based on preference.
