- Toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Spread the potatoes evenly on a large sheet pan.
- Roast the potatoes in the oven for 15 minutes.
Cooking
- After 15 minutes, add the chopped peppers, sliced onion, minced garlic, and sliced sausage to the pan.
- Stir gently to combine and ensure everything is coated with oil.
- Continue roasting for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until everything is golden and cooked through.
- Optionally, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese during the last few minutes of roasting for a cheesy finish.
Notes
If using raw sausage, slice it into thick coins before adding. For variations, chicken, turkey sausage, or even meatballs can be used. Make sure to cut all vegetables uniformly for even cooking. Leftovers reheat well and can be crisped up in a skillet for best results.
