Ingredients
  

1 lb Italian sausage (sweet or spicy, encased or bulk)

2 bell peppers (any color, sliced)

1 large red onion (sliced)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)

Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Optional: Crusty bread or cooked rice (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, sliced red onion, and minced garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss everything until the vegetables are well coated.

      Arrange on Sheet Pan: Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly across the pan, leaving some space in the center for the sausage.

        Add Sausage: If using encased sausage, slice the sausages into 1-inch pieces. If using bulk sausage, form small patties or bite-sized pieces. Nestle the sausage around the vegetables on the sheet pan.

          Roast in the Oven: Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and cooked through, and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir the mixture halfway through to ensure even cooking.

            Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or over cooked rice, if desired.
