Ingredients
Protein
- 5 organic chicken sausage links (any flavor, chopped into bite-size chunks)
Vegetables
- 2 crowns broccoli (chopped into bite-size florets)
- 2 sweet potatoes (chopped into bite-size chunks)
- 1 red onion (peeled and roughly chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
Seasonings and Oils
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
Optional toppings and serving
- Sriracha (for topping)
- Rice, quinoa, or whole grain (for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Chop the chicken sausage into bite-size chunks, cut broccoli into florets, peel and roughly chop the red onion, cube the sweet potatoes into chunks, and mince the garlic cloves. Arrange all these ingredients on a large baking sheet.
- Season and oil: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive or avocado oil over the sausage and vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon sea salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Toss everything well to ensure even coating of oil and seasoning.
- Roast the mixture: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes. Remove the tray and toss the mixture with a spatula to promote even cooking and browning. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and vegetables have slight caramelization.
- Final seasoning and serving: Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Serve the roasted sausage and vegetables over cooked rice, quinoa, or whole grains, and add a drizzle of sriracha sauce on top if you like some heat.
Notes
- For even cooking, cut all vegetables and sausage into similar sized pieces.
- Use your favorite flavor of chicken sausage for different taste profiles.
- Swap olive oil with avocado oil for a higher smoke point if preferred.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- For a vegan option, substitute chicken sausage with plant-based sausage alternatives and omit sriracha for a milder topping.
