Ingredients:

  • 1 lb Italian sausages or smoked sausage, sliced into 1-inch rounds
  • 2 large bell peppers, de-seeded and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 large zucchini, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the steel. Set your oven to 220°C and slide your empty baking sheet inside. Note: This creates an immediate sear on the ingredients.
  2. Slice the protein. Cut 1 lb of Italian sausages into 1 inch (2.5 cm) rounds. Listen for the clean snap of the casing.
  3. Prep the vegetables. Chunk the 2 bell peppers, 1 red onion, 1 zucchini, and 1 lb baby potatoes into uniform 1 inch pieces.
  4. Mix the aromatics. In a large bowl, toss the sausage and veg with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper.
  5. Listen for the sizzle. Carefully pull out the hot pan and dump the mixture on. It should hiss immediately.
  6. Space them out. Spread everything into a single layer. Note: Overlapping causes steaming instead of roasting.
  7. First roast phase. Bake for 15 minutes until the edges of the onions start to soften.
  8. Add the punch. Take the pan out, toss in 3 cloves of minced garlic, and flip everything with your spatula.
  9. Final roast phase. Return to the oven for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender and the sausage is deeply browned.
  10. Rest and serve. Let the pan sit for 2 minutes before serving to let the juices settle. The visual cues are more important than the timer. You are looking for those charred edges on the peppers — they should look slightly blistered. The zucchini will go from a bright, opaque white to a slightly translucent, golden edged green. If the potatoes aren't sliding off a fork easily, give them another 5 minutes; nobody likes a crunchy potato in a bad way!
