The Brussels sprouts and carrots can be swapped out for baby potatoes, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli, or even grapes. Serve this easy meal with creamy polenta or Parmesan smashed potatoes for an easy and satisfying meal.

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 25 Minutes
Total Time: 45 Minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion, halved and sliced ¼-inch thick
  • 3 large carrots, sliced on an angle ½-inch thick
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, stemmed and halved (if small, leave whole)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 pound fresh hot (or sweet) Italian sausage links (bratwurst, chorizo, or any sausage that you like may be substituted)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a 13 x 18-inch baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil for easy clean-up, if desired.
  2. Directly on the baking sheet, toss the onion, carrots, and Brussels sprouts, oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until the vegetables are evenly coated. Place the sausages on the baking sheet, spacing them evenly around the pan, and arrange the vegetables as best you can in a single layer. Roast for 25 minutes, until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are caramelized and tender (no need to stir while cooking).
  3. Note: Feel free to substitute different vegetables, such as baby potatoes (halved), sweet potatoes (cut into 1-inch chunks), large broccoli or cauliflower florets, or even grapes. (If using potatoes, do not line the pan with foil, as they are prone to sticking.)

  • Jenn – can I use fully cooked sausage in this recipe?

    • Hi Linda, You could roast start the vegetables first and then just add the sausage for the last 10 minutes to warm it up. Hope you enjoy!

  • Made this tonight using chorizo sausage and also added some sweet potatoes. So easy and yummy. Thanks for another keeper.

  • Jenn,

    Another easy and delicious recipe. I used Spanish Chorizo sausage and substituted sliced onion for pearl onions. Added some turnip to the carrots and B sprouts and a couple other spices. Great for a cool Autumn evening in the Great White North.

    Thanks Again!

  • Excellent recipe and not only delicious but easy & fast. Followed the recipe without carrots and onions, as did not have enough room on my sheet pan. Used onion powder instead of sliced onion. This is a keeper in my recipe book.

    Thank you so much for posting this.

  • Hi Jen, Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts?

    • I don’t think they will be as good but, yes, I think you could get away with frozen Brussels here. Enjoy!

  • Hi Jenn- might be a stupid question, but do you remove the sausage from the casing? Thanks!

    • Not stupid at all! You can leave them in their casings for this. Hope you enjoy. 🙂

  • Awesome recipe, Jenn. I love roasted brussel sprouts. Had some Italian sausages in the freezer and clueless what to make. This was perfect. I added a few red potatoes. Delicious. You are my fave when it comes to great recipes.

  • Hi Jenn! Your recipes are always a hit with the family. For this sheet pan recipe ss it okay to use chicken sausages?

    • Sure – hope you enjoy!

      • Excellent recipe! I added little more spices to vegetables and added Smoked Beef sausages 12 minutes before the end of cooking time. Very tasty and nutritious! Thanks! Much appreciated!
