Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into medium-sized cubes (about 1 inch)
  • 1 lb broccoli, trimmed and cut into pieces about the size of other ingredients

Protein

  • 1 package (4 or 5 links) pre-cooked chicken, turkey, or pork sausage (about 14–16 oz.)

Seasonings & Dressing

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and spray a sheet pan with non-stick spray. If your oven tends to run hot or you’re unsure of its calibration, consider lowering the temperature to 400°F (204°C) and increasing the cooking time accordingly.
  2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Peel and cut two medium sweet potatoes into roughly one-inch cubes for even roasting.
  3. Make Dressing: In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, and freshly ground black pepper to create a flavorful dressing.
  4. Toss Sweet Potatoes: Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large bowl and toss with half of the prepared oil-balsamic dressing to evenly coat them.
  5. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan and roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  6. Slice Sausage: While sweet potatoes roast, slice the pre-cooked sausage into approximately 3/4-inch thick pieces. Trim ends as needed to ensure flat sides for even cooking.
  7. Add Sausage to Roasting Pan: After the sweet potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the sheet pan and arrange the sausage slices on the pan. Roast for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Prepare Broccoli: Cut the broccoli into pieces about the same size as the sweet potatoes and sausage. Toss the broccoli in the remaining oil-balsamic dressing in a bowl.
  9. Combine Ingredients: Remove the sheet pan from the oven, turn the sausage slices over, and spread out the sweet potatoes and sausage pieces. Nestle the broccoli pieces between them evenly on the pan.
  10. Final Roast: Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for a final 15 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender to your liking and the sausages and sweet potatoes are nicely browned.
  11. Season and Serve: Once roasted, season everything with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Adjust oven temperature based on your oven’s calibration to prevent burning.
  • Use pre-cooked sausages to reduce overall cook time and ensure they are heated through properly.
  • Cut vegetables into similar sizes for even cooking.
  • You can substitute balsamic vinegar with apple cider vinegar for a different flavor profile.
  • For added crunch, broil the dish for 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking, watching carefully to avoid burning.
