How to Make Sheet Pan Sausage and Sweet Potatoes

Prep your sheet pan. Lightly grease a large pan and preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Chop the veggies. Cut sweet potatoes into ½-inch cubes and broccoli into bite-sized florets.
Slice the sausage. Use pre-cooked links, slicing into ½-inch rounds for even roasting.
Whisk the honey garlic sauce. In a skillet, sauté garlic in butter, then add honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Simmer until slightly thickened.
Toss everything together. Spread sausage, broccoli, and sweet potatoes on the sheet pan. Drizzle with sauce and toss until coated.
Roast. Bake for 25–30 minutes until the potatoes are tender and caramelized.
Finish. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Tips for Success

Cut veggies evenly so they cook at the same rate.
Use fresh garlic – it makes the sauce much more flavorful.
Don’t overcrowd the pan; a single layer ensures crisp, caramelized edges.

Variations to Try

Switch the meat. Try cubed chicken, turkey meatballs, or even shrimp.
Change the veggies. Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, or bell peppers all roast beautifully.
Make it vegetarian. Skip the sausage and double up on vegetables.
Spice it up. Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for heat.

What to Serve With It

This dish is hearty enough to stand alone, but pairs wonderfully with:

A fresh green salad
Steamed rice or quinoa
Crusty bread to soak up the sauce

Make Ahead & Storage

Prep ahead. Chop sausage and veggies up to 3 days in advance. Store sweet potatoes in water to keep them fresh.
Sauce ahead. The honey garlic sauce keeps for up to 1 week in the fridge.
Leftovers. Store roasted sausage and veggies in the fridge up to 5–6 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
