FAQ's
Yes, if you don’t have sausages, you can use chicken breasts as well.
No, you don’t! I’ve made this both ways, cutting the sausages and leaving them whole. If you like your sausages more browned then cutting them is the way to go as they get brown on each side. But if you’re feeling lazy, just put the whole sausages on the sheet pan.
Absolutely! I used a Garlic Basil Sausage when I made this recipe. But, if you’re using an Italian Sausage, you could add bell peppers or tomatoes for example. Or you could use chicken breasts and use different veggies like butternut squash, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, or other favorites.
I used ghee for this, but you could use extra virgin olive oil if you prefer too!
You can serve this plain on its own, or you can serve it with bread, rice, quinoa, or even potatoes. Try my Bone Broth Mashed Potatoes or Garlic Herb French Fries!
Yes, just double or triple the recipe if you need to make more and be sure to use a half sheet pan instead of a quarter sheet pan. You can use the 2x or 3x on the recipe card to do the calculations for you!
