Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb sausage, sliced
- 2 cups bell peppers, chopped
- 1 cup zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Slice the sausage into approximately 1/2-inch thick rounds. Chop bell peppers into uniform bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are roughly similar in size for even cooking.
- Cut zucchini into half-moon slices about 1/4-inch thick. Break broccoli florets into similar-sized pieces to promote consistent roasting.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced sausage, bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli florets. Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables and meat.
- Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the mixture. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure even coating and seasoning distribution.
- Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared sheet pan, ensuring ingredients are in a single layer without overcrowding to allow proper roasting and caramelization.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Check that sausage is fully cooked and vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Internal sausage temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Serve hot directly from the sheet pan for a rustic, low-carb meal.
Tips
- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat for effortless cleanup and prevent sticking.
- Cut all vegetables to similar sizes to ensure even cooking and perfect caramelization.
- Don't overcrowd the sheet pan - give ingredients space to roast, not steam.
- Stir halfway through cooking to promote uniform browning and prevent burning.
- For extra flavor, consider using different sausage varieties like spicy Italian or herb-infused.
- Check sausage internal temperature reaches 160°F for food safety.
- Let the dish rest briefly after cooking to allow flavors to meld and settle.
- Customize with your favorite low-carb vegetables for variety.
