A play on the classic Italian dish, this version of sheet pan sausage and peppers is made with smoked kielbasas and tossed in a honey-mustard glaze, making for an incredibly easy weeknight dinner!
I’m a little obsessed with sheet pan dinners.
Is that a bad thing, you think? My guess is likely that no, not a bad thing at all. I’m also willing to guess you’re with me on this. Right?
Because truly, how can it be a bad thing to enjoy a recipe style that is basically the perfect weeknight dinner recipe?
Toss delicious ingredients onto a sheet pan.
Season appropriately.
Place in a hot oven until cooked.
Eat.
It could not be easier, and I love that so, so much.
This sheet pan sausage and peppers recipe features plump, juicy, smoked kielbasa and is my play on the old Italian standby, sausage and peppers.
Did you know smoked kielbasa and sweet, slightly spicy peppers go awesome together? If you do, you’re probably from the Midwest and know Polish Americans. Just saying.
I love the combo of heat, sweet, and spice on these sheet pan sausage and peppers.
You’ve got crispy sweet red peppers, yellow onions, smoky kielbasa, all covered in a 3-ingredient mustard glaze that’s also perfection as a salad dressing.
So while you’re at it, make a big, leafy salad and toss it with the remainder of this sauce. Serve some crusty bread on the side and you’ve got a dinner in 20 minutes that’s full of flavor and a bit of bite.
