Sheet Pan Sausage and Broccoli Bake

If there's one thing we love, it's a dinner that cooks itself on a single sheet pan! This Sausage and Broccoli Bake is a weeknight lifesaver, delivering big flavor with minimal fuss and even less cleanup. It’s hearty, healthy, and endlessly customizable.

Ingredients

Yield: 4 servings

Main

  • 1 lb Italian sausage (sweet or hot), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 heads broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: Red pepper flakes

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat your 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 broccoli florets and sausage pieces. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure everything is evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the sausage and broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this helps everything roast evenly and get nicely browned.

  4. Step 4

    Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sausage is cooked through and the broccoli is tender-crisp and slightly charred.

  5. Step 5

    Serve immediately, perhaps with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a little kick.

Tips

  • Don't overcrowd the pan! If you're doubling the recipe, use two baking sheets.
  • Feel free to add other quick-cooking veggies like bell peppers or cherry tomatoes.
  • Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for brightness.
