Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes (halved)
- 2 large onions (peeled and cut into wedges)
- 2 red bell peppers (seeded and chopped)
- 6 cloves garlic (minced)
Seasonings and Oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Main Ingredients
- 12 sweet Italian sausage (pricked with a fork)
- 3/4 cup dry white wine
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F to ensure it reaches the right temperature for roasting.
- Season Vegetables: Place the baby potatoes, onions, bell peppers, garlic, olive oil, thyme, basil, rosemary, salt, and pepper into a large ziplock bag. Seal the bag and shake well to coat the vegetables evenly with the oil and herbs.
- Transfer Vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly across the bottom of a large roasting dish or rimmed baking sheet for even cooking.
- Coat Sausages: Put the sausage links into the now-empty ziplock bag and gently shake them to coat with any remaining oil and herbs from the bag.
- Arrange and Roast: Place the sausages on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for 30 minutes, allowing the vegetables to become golden and crispy at the edges.
- Toss and Add Wine: Remove the pan from the oven and carefully toss the vegetables and sausages to coat them in the cooking juices. Pour the white wine over everything and return the pan to the oven.
- Finish Cooking: Bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the sausages are fully cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
- Serve: Serve hot, optionally accompanied by mustard, fresh bread, or applesauce for a complete meal. Enjoy your savory roasted sausage and potatoes!
Notes
- This one-pan meal is perfect for quick weeknight dinners and makes great leftovers for next-day meal prep.
- You can substitute the sweet Italian sausage with spicy Italian sausage for more heat.
- Using a rimmed baking sheet helps catch juices and makes tossing easier.
- If you don’t have white wine, chicken broth can be used as an alternative.
- Pricking the sausages allows the fat to render and prevents the casings from bursting.
