What Kind of Chicken Sausage Should I Use?

Ingredients for the Easy Chicken Sausage and Veggies Sheet Pan

Chicken Sausage – The star protein, it adds savory depth and satisfying bite. Choose your favorite flavor variety.

Zucchini – Light and tender, it roasts quickly and absorbs flavors well.

Bell Peppers (red, yellow) – For sweetness, crunch, and vibrant color.

Broccoli Florets – Adds texture and a nutrient boost. Roasts beautifully with crisp edges.

Red Onion – Slightly caramelizes for a mellow bite.

Olive Oil – Helps the veggies roast to perfection.

Garlic Powder, Italian Seasoning, Salt & Pepper – Essential spices that give everything a savory, herby flavor.

Parmesan Cheese (optional) – A finishing touch for those who want a salty, cheesy kick.

How To Make the Easy Chicken Sausage and Veggies Sheet Pan

Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients

Slice the chicken sausage into 1-inch rounds. Chop all the veggies into bite-sized pieces to ensure even roasting. Preheat your oven to 425°F.

Step 2: Toss and Season

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sausage and vegetables. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss well until everything is evenly coated.

Step 3: Spread on a Sheet Pan

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Spread the mixture in a single layer, giving the veggies space to roast rather than steam.

Step 4: Roast to Perfection

Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through. The vegetables should be tender with golden edges, and the sausage slightly crispy.

Step 5: Add Finishing Touches

Once out of the oven, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
