# What You'll Need:

→ Meats

01 - 14 oz kielbasa sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds

→ Vegetables

02 - 2 cups broccoli florets
03 - 2 cups bell peppers (mixed colors), cut into chunks
04 - 1 red onion, cut into wedges
05 - 2 medium carrots, sliced
06 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
07 - 1 tbsp olive oil

12 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
13 - 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

→ Optional Garnishes

14 - 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
15 - Lemon wedges

# How to Prepare:

01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
02 - Arrange the sliced kielbasa, broccoli, bell peppers, red onion, carrots, and cherry tomatoes evenly on the pan. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and black pepper until smooth.
04 - Pour the honey garlic glaze evenly over the sausage and vegetables. Toss everything gently to ensure even coating.
05 - Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and caramelized and the kielbasa is heated through and slightly crisped.
06 - Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges, if desired.

# Expert advice:

01 -
  • The honey garlic glaze creates these sticky caramelized bits that everyone fights over
  • Cleanup takes literally two minutes which might be the real victory here
  • It somehow makes vegetables taste like something you actually want to eat seconds of
02 -
  • Overcrowding the pan leads to steaming instead of roasting so use two pans if needed
  • The glaze can burn quickly so keep an eye on things during the last 5 minutes
  • Adding delicate vegetables like green beans requires tossing them in during the last 10 minutes
03 -
  • Cut all vegetables to similar sizes so everything finishes roasting at the same time
  • Let the sheet pan cool for 5 minutes before cleanup or the caramelized bits become impossible to remove
