Ingredients

Yield: 4 servings

Main

  • 1 lb smoked sausage (kielbasa or similar), sliced into ½-inch rounds
  • 1 ½ lbs small potatoes (such as baby Yukon Gold or red potatoes), quartered
  • 1 large bell pepper (any color), chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, combine the sliced sausage, quartered potatoes, chopped bell pepper, and red onion wedges.

  3. Step 3

    Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well coated.

  4. Step 4

    Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure vegetables and sausage have some space to roast evenly.

  5. Step 5

    Bake for 25-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until potatoes are tender and browned, and sausage is lightly caramelized.

  6. Step 6

    Remove from oven, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.

Tips

  • Make sure to cut potatoes into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • If some veggies are really small, add them slightly later to prevent overcooking.
