Why You'll Love This Recipe

  • This is a simple way to cook a complete meal in one pan! Sheet pan meals (like this sheet pan pork chop dinner) are an absolute game-changer - they require minimal prep and minimal dirty dishes.

  • Customize this dish to include any proteins, veggies, or seasonings you'd like!

Ingredients

ingredients for sheet pan sausage and potatoes.
  • 1 lb Sausage - I'm an Alabama girl, so of course I'm going to use Conecuh...but you can really use whatever you have on hand. Any linked sausage works!
  • 2lbs red potatoes - Make sure to cut these into bite-sized pieces.
  • 1 red onion - I just roughly chop my onion for this dish (maybe 5-6 chunks per onion).
  • ¼ cup olive oil - If you prefer, you could use butter, vegetable oil, or coconut oil instead.
  • 2 tablespoons Montreal Steak Seasoning - This seasoning really is the star of the show! It's going to give your potatoes & onions a flavorful, almost smokey feel.

Optional Veggies

This sheet pan meal is incredibly customizable - if you can roast it in the oven, you can add it to this sheet pan dinner! A few of my favorites...

  • Broccoli
  • Red or green bell peppers
  • Cauliflower
  • Carrots
  • Mushrooms
  • Peas
  • Green beans
  • Tomatoes
  • Zucchini or yellow squash

If you add any extra veggies, aim for about a pound total to keep the cooking time and texture consistent. I'd also recommend adding an additional tablespoon of Montreal Steak Seasoning per pound of veggies you add.

How to Make Sheet Pan Sausage, Potatoes, & Onions

This might be one of the easiest recipes on my blog. It's as simple as chopping, tossing, and baking in the oven!

sausage, potatoes, and onion tossed with olive oil and seasoning on a sheet pan.
  1. Spread 1lb chopped sausage, 2lbs chopped potatoes, and 1 red onion evenly on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Drizzle generously with olive oil and sprinkle with 2 tablespoon Montreal Steak Seasoning. Toss everything together to coat well.
  2. Bake at 425°F for 35-40 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the sausage is sizzling and the vegetables are golden and tender.

More Helpful Tips & Tricks

  • I used a half-sheet baking sheet pan to make this dish. Make sure that, no matter which sheet pan you use, everything is baked in a single layer to ensure it gets nice and crispy in the oven.
  • Lining your sheet pan is a huge help when clean-up time rolls around! I love using a silicone baking mat to line my sheet pan. You can also use aluminum foil or parchment paper.
  • If you wash any of your veggies, make sure to pat them dry with a paper towel before adding to the sheet pan. If veggies are wet, they don't brown as well in the oven.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 3-4 days; reheat in the air fryer or oven at 350°F for 5-6 minutes.

FAQs

I don't recommend using frozen vegetables if you want your sheet pan meal to get nice and crispy. If you do decide to use frozen veggies, make sure to thaw them first.

Yes, you can use pre-cooked sausage if you'd like. It should brown just the same as the fresh sausage I used.

Yes - that's one of the big advantages of sheet pan meals! Chop your ingredients and toss in oil and seasonings; put ingredients on a lined sheet pan and cover. When you're ready to cook it (within 12-24 hours), simply pop it in the oven.

  1. Hi Leslie! I replied to your email regarding pizza dough in an InstantPot and getting out of the dinner planning rut. I just wanted to let you know that I got this in response "Your message couldn't be delivered because the recipient's email server (outside Office 365) uses the spamrl.com spam block list and it suspected your message is spam. However, your message wasn't discarded, but instead was put into the recipient's spam quarantine. To fix this, contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) and ask them to release the message from their spam quarantine. This will automatically re-classify your message as being blocked by mistake, and will help train the spamrl.com block list to avoid blocking your messages in the future."

    1. Thanks so much for letting me know Beth - I'm going to check and see what's going on!

  2. What kind of sausage did you use? I am making all your sheet pan freezer meals for my DIL who is pregnant, so she has some quick meals to put in the oven. Thanks for sharing all the recipes!

    1. I used a smoked sausage for this. You could even use turkey sausage!
