Whether served over a crusty piece of bread or spooned into bowls with polenta or pasta, One-Pan Sausage Pepper Tomatoes is the kind of recipe that feels like home—warm, filling, and full of flavor.
Recipe Yield: 4 servings
INGREDIENTS
1 lb Italian sausage links (mild or hot)
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 pt cherry tomatoes
1 small red onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, smashed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Fresh basil, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven:
Set your oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
2. Prep the sausage and veggies:
Slice the bell peppers, onion, and smash the garlic cloves. Add them to the sheet pan along with cherry tomatoes and whole sausage links.
3. Season and toss:
Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar over everything. Sprinkle with oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well with your hands to coat evenly, then spread ingredients in a single layer.
4. Roast until golden:
Place in the oven and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping sausages halfway through. Cook until sausages are browned and cooked through and the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized.
5. Serve hot:
Slice sausages if desired. Garnish with fresh basil and serve over crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or polenta.
HELPFUL TIPS TO PERFECT THIS RECIPE
- Use High-Quality Sausages: Opt for well-seasoned Italian sausage with natural casings to bring bold flavor.
- Don’t Crowd the Pan: Make sure ingredients are in a single layer—this helps everything roast instead of steam.
- Brighten Before Serving: A splash of lemon juice or balsamic glaze adds the perfect finishing touch.
