Step-By-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a large baking sheet with olive oil or cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, stir together the garlic powder and sea salt until combined. Set aside.
- Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle half of the seasoning mixture over them, then toss until coated. Spread into a single layer. Bake for 12 minutes. Flip the potatoes using a spatula, then move them to one side of the baking sheet.
- Place the green beans on the other side of the baking sheet and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning over them and toss to combine. Add the chicken sausage slices and toss everything to combine. Spread evenly on the baking sheet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the green beans are your desired tenderness and potatoes are beginning to brown on the edges.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Expert Tip: Cut the potatoes so they are all about the same size for even cooking.
Variations
- Use a different type of pre-cooked sausage. Try chicken apple sausage, pork sausage, spicy Italian sausage, smoked sausage or kielbasa.
- Substitute the yellow potatoes for red potatoes. You can use baby red potatoes or regular red potatoes.
Serving Suggestions
Once cooked, you can top it with fresh herbs before serving. Some favorites are parsley, thyme, rosemary, and basil.
It’s great on it’s own or you can serve it with a big side salad, rice, or orzo.
To store: refrigerate in an air tight container for up to 3 days.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Sausage, green beans, and potatoes are great served on their own! You could also serve it with a big side salad, your favorite type of rice, or a side of orzo with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice.
To use frozen green beans in place of fresh green beans, simply leave out the green beans from the sheet pan. Cook them according to package directions, and toss them with the sausage and potatoes once they are fully baked.
