Equipment I Used
How to Make It
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure even roasting
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
Place the diced sweet potatoes on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tbsp of avocado oil, then season with salt and freshly cracked pepper. Toss to coat the sweet potatoes evenly with oil and seasoning.
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes, allowing them to start softening and developing flavor.
Add Remaining Ingredients
After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Add the sliced smoked sausage, minced onion, red and green bell peppers (or any colors you have), red chili pepper flakes, garlic powder, and the white part of the green onion. Pour the chicken stock over the ingredients and toss everything together to coat.
Finish Roasting
Spread the ingredients evenly across the baking sheet and return to the oven. Roast for an additional 15 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender.
Garnish and Serve
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and garnish with the green tops of the scallions for a fresh finish. Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful Smoked Sausage and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan meal!
