Ingredients
- 4 chicken sausages (preferably fully cooked)
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets, sweet potato cubes, red bell pepper slices, and zucchini slices with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
- While the vegetables roast, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken sausages and cook according to the package instructions (typically 5-7 minutes per side), until browned and heated through. Slice the sausages into rounds.
- To assemble the bowls, divide the roasted vegetables evenly into bowls and top with the sliced chicken sausage. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
- Use any type of sausage you prefer, such as turkey, pork, or plant-based options.
- Swap the veggies with your favorites like Brussels sprouts, carrots, or cauliflower.
- For extra texture, serve over quinoa, couscous, or brown rice.
- Drizzle a tahini or balsamic glaze on top for added flavor.
