One-Pan Sausage, Green Beans, and Potatoes: A Simple, Hearty Meal With Big Comfort

 

How to Make One-Pan Sausage, Green Beans, and Potatoes


1. Preheat and Prepare the Pan

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil for easy cleanup.


2. Prepare the Ingredients

  • Slice the sausage into ½-inch rounds.

  • Halve the baby potatoes (quarter if large).

  • Trim the ends off the green beans.

Place everything on the baking sheet but keep the green beans to one side—they cook faster.


3. Season Everything Generously

Drizzle ingredients with olive oil.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the sausage, potatoes, and beans.
Toss to coat.

For extra richness, you can add a tablespoon of melted butter over the potatoes.


4. Roast to Perfection

Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25 minutes.
Remove, toss gently, and check for doneness.

Return to the oven and roast for 10–15 more minutes, or until:

  • Potatoes are fork-tender

  • Sausage edges are caramelized

  • Green beans are crisp-tender

If you like everything more browned, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end.


5. Serve Warm

Serve straight from the pan or plate with:

  • Lemon wedges

  • Parmesan cheese

  • Fresh herbs like parsley

This dish needs no extra sides, but crusty bread or a simple garden salad pairs beautifully.
