Looking for a quick and easy dinner idea? This recipe takes less than 30 minutes from prep to plate!
As you know, E and I really love Jack’s Gourmet Sausage. They have so many different delicious varieties! Our favorite is the Sweet Italian Beef Sausage. I always keep a few packages in the freezer for nights when I don’t have a lot of time to cook. They defrost super quick.
Last night just so happened to be one of those nights. Thankfully, I had a few mini bell peppers in the refrigerator to pair with the sausage. Sausage and peppers are a classic combination, and they work really well together. The real twist in this dish is the garlicky roasted sweet potatoes. They added a nice sweetness to a dish that was otherwise very savory and meaty. I am definitely adding this recipe to my dinner rotation!
Ingredients:
Sweet Potatoes, 2, cubed
Bell Peppers, 2, sliced into strips
Jack’s Gourmet Sausage, 1 package, sliced
Red Onion, 1, sliced thinly
Garlic, 2 cloves, chopped finely
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (“EVOO”), 4 tablespoons
Garlic Powder, 2 teaspoons
Sea Salt, 2 teaspoons
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Lay a sheet of parchment paper on a roasting pan and spread the sweet potatoes out into an even layer.
- Drizzle the sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons of EVOO and then sprinkle with garlic powder and sea salt.
- Roast in the oven for 20 minutes or until fork tender.
- While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet withย 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Once glistening, add the onions and garlic.
- Once the onions are slightly translucent, add the peppers to the skillet. Then add the sausage.
- Sautรฉ until the sausage has browned to your liking.
- I served this in a bowl, with the roasted sweet potatoes on the bottom and the sausage and peppers on top. That way the drippings from the sausage added additional flavor to the potatoes!
YUM! This looks so good and savory. Definitely saving this.
We have something similar for dinner with chicken sausage just about every week! It is such a good go-to!
