Ingredients for Sausage Sheet Pan Supper
- Sweet Potatoes
- Carrots
- Onions
- Garlic
- Paprika
- Salt
- Parsley
- Olive Oil
- Italian Sausage
Tools Needed
The sheet pans I use are made from stainless steel. I avoid using aluminum or non-stick pans because I don't want the aluminum and other toxins getting into my food when heated.
Variations
- Try adobo seasoning instead of the parsley and paprika.
- Use Smoked Paprika instead of regular paprika.
- Swap out the sweet potatoes for regular white potatoes.
- Try different veggies!
- Use multi colored carrots instead of regular orange carrots.
How to Serve this Italian Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner
Most definitely serve this with extra olive oil. It's just SO GOOD drizzled with excess olive oil, and the starchy sweet potatoes are good for catching the oil.
I also love to try a variety of hot sauces with this meal! The veggies lend themselves to being smothered in hot sauce, and with the basic spices it goes with pretty much any flavoring!
How to make this Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner
Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Chop and prepare the veggies. Spread them all out on a large baking sheet.
Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle the spices on top, then mix everything together with your hands until evenly coated.
Lay the sausages on top of the veggies, all spread out.
Place the tray in the oven, and let them bake until the veggies are softened, and the sausage is completely cooked through, at around 165 degrees in the middle. This should take about 30 minutes or so.
When finished, plate it, then serve with more oil (or sauces of choice).
Top Tip
Try to cut the veggies as uniformly as possible! The carrots will take the longest to cook, so keep them uniform in size and small so that the sweet potatoes aren't finished way earlier than they are.
FAQ's
Lots of veggies go with sausages! Since we're using Italian sausage here, the ones I've chosen pair very well. You can also add bell peppers or zucchini or anything you'd like to try.
A sheet pan dinner is a dinner where all the ingredients are spread out on a sheet pan and baked. Everything cooks on the same pan resulting in easy cleanup, and you have a beautiful blend of flavors!
While the recipe calls for Italian sausage, you can use any type of sausage you like! You could absolutely swap it out for pork or chicken, and different flavors.
I do not recommend using frozen veggies in this recipe! The texture will be mushy and it is not compatible with the cooking temperature/time.
