Description
A simple, hearty dinner recipe using sausage, cabbage, and onions roasted together on one sheet pan for easy cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs smoked sausage or kielbasa, sliced into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium head of green cabbage, cut into 1-inch wedges
- 1 large yellow onion, cut into thick wedges
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (optional, for finishing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced sausage, cabbage wedges, and onion wedges.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the sausage and vegetables. Sprinkle with thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables and sausage are evenly coated with oil and spices.
- Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two pans if necessary to allow for proper roasting and browning.
- Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time. The sausage should be slightly browned, and the cabbage edges should be tender and slightly caramelized.
- Remove from the oven. If using, drizzle the apple cider vinegar over the hot roast before serving.
Notes
- Use smoked sausage or kielbasa for the best flavor and texture in this roast. Italian sausage works but may release more liquid.
- If you prefer softer cabbage, cut the wedges slightly smaller or add them to the pan 5 minutes before adding the sausage.
- For a complete meal, add 1 pound of small, halved potatoes to the pan along with the cabbage. Increase the total cook time to 40 minutes.
