  • 1 lb baby potatoes (halved or quartered if large)
  • 12 oz fresh green beans (trimmed)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • Optional: ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (for heat)
  • Optional garnish: fresh parsley or grated Parmesan

How to Make One Pan Sausage, Green Beans, and Potatoes

Let’s make it together, step by step:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

  2. Prepare Veggies & Sausage: In a large bowl, toss together the halved potatoes, trimmed green beans, and sliced sausage. Add the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried parsley, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you desire an extra kick. Mix until everything is evenly coated.

  3. Spread on Baking Sheet: Evenly spread the mixture across the prepared baking sheet, ensuring everything is in a single layer for perfect roasting.

  4. Roast: Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway through. You’ll know it’s done when the potatoes are tender and golden, and the green beans are slightly crispy.

  5. Serve & Enjoy: Serve hot from the oven, garnished with freshly chopped parsley or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan if desired.

Variations & Creative Twists

While this recipe is comforting as is, feel free to make it your own:

  • Add Zesty Citrus: Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the dish before serving for a bright, refreshing twist.
  • Herb Explosion: Swap in fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme instead of dried parsley for a more aromatic experience.
  • Creamy Delight: After baking, drizzle some cream or a dollop of sour cream over the top for a creamy texture.
  • Spicy Kick: For those who like it hot, increase the red pepper flakes or toss in some sliced jalapeños for a fiery variation.

Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips

To achieve the best results with this cozy dish, consider these tips:

  • Make-Ahead Magic: You can prep the veggies and sausage the night before. Store them in the fridge and simply roast them when you’re ready to eat.
  • Ingredient Swaps: If you have other veggies on hand, like Brussels sprouts or bell peppers, feel free to toss those in as well for a power-packed meal.
  • Check for Doneness: Not all ovens cook at the same rate, so keep an eye on your dish while it roasts to ensure the perfect finish.
  • Leftover Love: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days—a hearty lunch waiting for you!
