Description

Delight in the harmonious flavors of roasted sweet potatoes, crisp green beans, and savory chicken sausage—all cooked to perfection on one convenient sheet pan.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken sausage
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 lb), peeled and diced
  • 8 oz fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare Your Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine diced sweet potatoes and trimmed green beans. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until well-coated.
  3. Slice the Sausage: Cut the chicken sausage into thick slices (about half an inch).
  4. Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the sweet potatoes on one side of a large baking sheet. Place the green beans alongside them and arrange the chicken sausage slices in between.
  5. Roast: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Stir halfway through to ensure even cooking and a golden-brown color.
  6. Serve: Once cooked through and fragrant, remove from the oven. Serve hot directly from the pan or on plates for a more elegant presentation.
