We are addicted to this sausage, potato and pepper dish! I cook it almost every week and always change up the veggies for what’s in season. It’s a healthy, colorful and protein-packed pan full of deliciousness and so easy to make. Just chop, toss and roast. Dinner is done!
With an archive of almost 600 recipes, you might find it funny that I haven’t posted my all-time favorite weeknight meal before. However, this one-pan wonder has been a relatively new, yet incredibly simple, discovery that has become a big time favorite.
We’ve gone back to this delicious meal again and again, cooking it once a week since dreaming it up earlier this year.
Using a variety of the fresh veggies we always have on hand – bell peppers, potatoes, and onions – makes this meal easy, healthy and full of flavorful goodness. But, the best addition? Juicy, tender Parmesan Italian Chicken Sausage from Gold’n Plump®.
One pan, a colorful medley of fresh veggies, and chunks of healthy, high protein chicken sausage? Weeknight meals don’t get any better.
I often change up the vegetables in this dish according to what’s in season. In the summer, I’ll use zucchini and yellow squash, maybe toss in some quartered Roma tomatoes. In the fall and winter, sweet potato and butternut squash are scrumptious additions.
We also like to add a little spice with crushed red pepper flakes (and hot sauce on the table), but these are optional. Feel free to use any seasoning in place of the Italian seasoning, too.
I’ve cooked this combo with Cajun, Moroccan, and Lemon-Pepper seasonings with equally amazing results. You can really make this meal to your taste!
This mouthwatering mix of chicken sausage, fresh veggies, potatoes, and spices is easily made in one pan and full of hearty, healthy goodness. Just chop it, toss it and roast it! Voila, your delicious dinner is done. And as a bonus, your home smells amazing.
Grab the ingredients and cook it up tonight. Chances are I will be cooking it again, too!

I Googled ‘how to cook lean chicken sausage’ and landed here. I actually have all of the ingredients to make this dish – Google for the win! So looking forward to dinner tonight. Thank you for the recipe :)
This dish is absolutely delicious! I used 1 clove of garlic as my husband is not a garlic lover. I was surprised how tasty this was with these simple ingredients. My son also loved this dish.
I made this last night, really goood! A definite keeper.
Can this be made with pre cooked sausage?
I roasted 9 bone-in chicken thighs with the 6 sausages in chunks and seasoning for half an hour with 1/3 cup of white wine. I tossed the vegetables (6 peppers and 3 lbs of potatoes) with olive oil, salt and pepper, then added them to the chicken and sausage for another half hour of roasting. It was delicious.
Made it. Great. I was out of curry so I used tumeric and mushrooms and green peppers and both red and yellow onions. Put over yellow rice
