Easy Sheet Pan Sausage Peppers (Print Version)

Juicy Italian sausages roasted with bell peppers and onions on one pan for easy, flavorful dining.

# What You'll Need:

→ Sausage

01 - 4 Italian sausages (mild or hot, approximately 14 oz total)

→ Vegetables

02 - 2 large bell peppers, sliced into strips
03 - 1 large red onion, sliced into wedges

→ Seasonings

04 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
05 - 1 teaspoon dried oregano
06 - 1 teaspoon dried basil
07 - ½ teaspoon garlic powder
08 - ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
09 - ½ teaspoon kosher salt
10 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper

→ Garnish (optional)

11 - Fresh chopped parsley
12 - Fresh basil leaves

# How To Make:

01 - Set the oven temperature to 425°F. Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine the bell peppers and red onion with olive oil, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, crushed red pepper flakes if using, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly.
03 - Distribute the seasoned vegetables evenly across the prepared baking sheet. Nestle the Italian sausages among the vegetables to ensure even roasting.
04 - Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes. Halfway through, turn the sausages and stir the vegetables to promote even cooking. The sausages are done when browned and reach an internal temperature of 160°F, and the vegetables are tender with caramelized edges.
05 - Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the sausages to rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Slice the sausages if desired.
06 - Garnish with fresh parsley or basil leaves before serving. Enjoy hot, paired alone, with crusty bread, or served over rice.
