Ingredients
1 package chicken sausage (about 12 oz), sliced
1 zucchini, sliced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
1 red onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Slice chicken sausage into rounds. Chop zucchini, bell peppers, broccoli, and red onion into uniform pieces.
3. In a large mixing bowl or directly on the sheet pan, toss sausage and vegetables with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
4. Spread the mixture out on a parchment-lined or greased sheet pan in a single layer.
5. Roast in the oven for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until sausage is golden and vegetables are tender with crisp edges.
6. Serve warm as-is or over rice, quinoa, or pasta.
Notes
Don’t overcrowd the sheet pan — use two pans if needed for better roasting results.
Make it spicier by using hot Italian chicken sausage or adding crushed red pepper flakes.
Add a sprinkle of parmesan or feta during the last 5 minutes for extra flavor.
