Servings: 6 -8 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage or sausage of choice
- 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes peeled and quartered
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 14.5-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes cut into pieces and liquid drained
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and cut in quarters
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Add the prepared potatoes and garlic to the baking sheet, add olive oil and toss to coat all sides. Arrange the sausage links on top of the potatoes in a single layer. Add the tomatoes to the pan and gently toss to combine. Sprinkle with herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Bake for 30-35, or until potatoes pierce through with a fork. You can open the oven and stir from time to time to ensure the dish cooks evenly. Serve hot. Mangia! (Eat)
Notes
- Cooking Time: The size of your sausages will affect cooking time. Smaller links (about 5 per package) are usually done in 18–20 minutes, while larger ones (3–4 per package) may need closer to 25 minutes.
- Give Everything Space: Don’t overcrowd the pan—spread the sausage and veggies out so they roast evenly and develop that nice golden color.
- Line the Pan: For easy cleanup and the best texture, line your sheet pan with aluminum foil. It prevents sticking and helps everything crisp up. I don’t recommend parchment paper, as it can cause the sausage and vegetables to steam instead of roast.
