Notes

General
  1. I recommend using a large sheet tray for this recipe so that the ingredients have more room to brown rather than steam.
  2. You can add spices to this dish if you'd like. Try adding a teaspoon of garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or dried herbs like rosemary, thyme, basil, or oregano. Add the spices at the same time as the salt and pepper.
  3. Make this with any variety of chicken sausage that looks good to you. 
Storage and Reheating
  1. Leftovers sausage, peppers, and potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 5 days.
  2. You can freeze this dish for up to 3 months. Keep in mind that the texture will be quite soft when defrosted.
  3. To reheat, microwave the sausage and veggies in 30-second intervals until heated through.
