Ingredients

1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy, your choice)

2 bell peppers (red and yellow, sliced)

1 large onion (sliced)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper (to taste)

Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Crusty bread (for serving)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with oregano, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Add Sausage: In the same bowl, add the Italian sausages. If you prefer bite-sized pieces, feel free to slice the sausages into 1-inch pieces. Toss everything together until well combined.

Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the sausage and pepper mixture evenly on a large baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan to allow room for roasting.

Bake: Place the sheet pan into the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Make sure to give the mixture a good stir halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking.

Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Pair with crusty bread to soak up all the delicious juices!
