A riff off the ballpark classic, this sheet pan dinner recipe is made with hearty Italian sausage, buttery Little potatoes, and roasted bell peppers. The perfect busy weeknight dinner recipe!
I’m on a major sheet pan dinner kick and for good reason: they’re versatile, easy to prepare and great for using up whatever produce I have on hand!
My husband is a Bostonian and we spent many years living there together while we were dating. As a result, we have very fond memories of visiting Fenway Park. Of course, you can’t visit Fenway Park without trying one of their famous sausage and pepper subs.
This sheet pan dinner is a riff off the ballpark classic, made more nutritiously with nutrient-packed Creamer potatoes, red bell peppers, and sweet onions.
When roasted, the potatoes and peppers caramelize and the sausages become perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
Since The Little Potato Company’s Creamer potatoes are pre-washed, this entire meal is prepped in just a matter of minutes. Once you throw the pan in the oven, dinner practically cooks itself.
To intensify the flavors more, I like to add oregano and fresh rosemary. Additionally, garlic cloves are added in whole which slowly roast in the oven. The roasted garlic turns out creamy and sweet.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving and dinner is done.
Your fork is waiting.
Chicken or turkey sausage from Traders Joe would work as well.

This was delicious and exceeded my expectations! With my pantry running low, I had a pack of bratwursts in the freezer, 2 lonely green peppers in the vegetable drawer, and 3 potatoes hiding under the cabinets. I googled those 3 ingredients and found this. I removed the skin from both the sausage and potatoes and cut them into equal sized chunks. I did not have onions, but added sliced mushrooms. I used some onion powder and dried chopped onions too, along with Italian seasoning and paprika. I was surprised how everything cooked to perfection, together, and in just 30 mins. For an on the fly dinner, my family LOVED this.

How delish! I added sliced carrots, reduced the oil to 1 Tbs. and added green pepper. Used 2 sheet pans to eliminate crowding/steaming risk. Thanks for the recipe. My sheet pans will get some extra work!

Can I leave out the garlic? Several people are allergic to it.
