    Don’t let the cooking time throw you off, this sheet pan dinner is mostly hands off and requires very little effort. For more simple weeknight dinners try this baked Italian sausage, an easy ground beef taco salad, this Italian sausage spaghetti that’s sure to please.

    Ingredients

    The ingredients for the sheet pan potatoes and sausage prepped and arranged in glass bowls on a table.
    • Sausage – Polka Kielbasa (fully cooked variety) works well. It does not dry out and takes on a lovely golden brown color. Smoked sausage will also be great.
    • Produce – Potatoes and onions accompany the sausage on the sheet pan. For the potatoes use red or yellow so they hold up nicely when baked. For the onions white or yellow onions are best for this dish.
    • Oil – Use a neutral (flavorless) oil with a high smoke point. We use canola but use your favorite. You will also need cooking spray or extra oil to grease the baking sheet.
    • Spices – Salt, garlic powder, dried oregano, and black pepper season this dish perfectly.
    • See the recipe card for quantities and preparation.

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a large sheet pan (18×13) lightly with cooking spray or brush with a light layer of oil.

    Oil being added to sliced sausage, potatoes, and onions in a large, glass bowl.

    Add the sausage, potatoes, onions, and oil to a large bowl. Stir and toss the sausage and potatoes and coat them with the oil.

    Seasoning added to sausage, potatoes, and onions in a large, glass bowl, with a teal colored silicone spatula on the right side.

    Add the salt, garlic powder, oregano, and pepper to the bowl and stir and toss again until everything is coated with the seasoning.

    The ingredients for the meal mounded on a metal baking sheet.

    Add the mixture to the greased baking sheet.

    The sausage potato mixture arranged in a single layer on a metal baking sheet.

    Arrange it in a single layer on the sheet pan.

    • Bake for 15 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir. Arrange everything again so it’s in a single layer.
    • Bake for another 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir again, arranging in one layer.
    • Bake for 15 more minutes. Check the potatoes, if they are not done (or if you want to brown everything a little more) bake another 10-15 minutes.

    Serve the sausage and potatoes. Serving suggestions include saltine crackers, toasted bread, mustard, and hot sauce.

    Recipe tips

    • Don’t peel the potatoes to cut down on prep time. The skin on red or yellow potatoes are thin so texture won’t be an issue.
    • Don’t cut the potatoes too small so they hold up to the baking time and the stirring. Same goes with the onions, if they are too small they will just about disappear with the cooking time.
    • Go easy on the salt because the sausage will add plenty. Taste at the end then decide if you want to add a pinch or two.

    Storing

    Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or a non-stick skillet until hot all the way through.
