Tender sweet potatoes, crisp bell peppers, sweet onions, and spicy sausage are roasted together in this easy as can be meal that my family just can’t get enough of lately.
I make a variation of this sheet pan supper at least a couple times a month. I typically use whichever sausage I have in the refrigerator: andouille, kielbasa, spicy chicken, pork, or beef links will all work well.
Last time I made this, I used a cheese and jalapeno stuffed chicken sausage, so your favorite sausage should work as well. I always have assorted sausages on hand just for meals like this; most unopened sausage will keep in the refrigerator for quite a while before needing to be used.

Roasted Sausage with Sweet Potatoes and Peppers
SavePinPrintReviewServings: 4 -5 servings
Ingredients
- ▢3 small sweet potatoes or jewel yams, about 1 pound, chopped into ½-inch pieces
- ▢12-16 ounces andouille kielbasa, or polish sausage (pork or chicken)
- ▢1 bell pepper sliced into 1-inch wide strips
- ▢1 small onion cut into wedges
- ▢3 tablespoons olive oil divided
- ▢1¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ▢½ teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
- ▢¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ▢¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the potatoes on a large baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil. Toss with your hands to coat. Spread across the sheet and roast for 20 minutes.
- Slice the sausage in half, or into 3-inch sections. Slice the peppers and onions. Stir together the oil, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the sausage and vegetables to the bowl and toss with your hands to thoroughly coat everything with the spices. Set aside.
- When the potatoes have been in the oven for 20 minutes, use a spatula to stir them gently and flip them over. Add the sausage, peppers, and onions to the baking sheet. Stir to combine and spread everything across the baking sheet.
- Roast an additional 20 minutes. The potatoes should be slightly crisp, the sausage should be plump and juicy, and the peppers should be slightly shriveled and beginning to brown. Enjoy!
