Easy Bratwurst Dinner

One day, I decided to think up a sheet pan dinner that would be epic. Easy and epic. With bratwurst in the fridge, and lots of peppers, it dawned on me: Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner.

Sausage and peppers is one of the best meals, period, so why not turn it into a sheet pan dinner? It was genius, and turns out, it was also delicious.

This sheet pan dinner is super easy: slice red onion, peppers (we used green, orange and red), and grab 2 handfuls of baby potatoes. Place your bratwurst on one side of the sheet pan, your peppers in the middle, and your potatoes on the other side. Place the onions ON TOP of the brats.

Drizzle the peppers and potatoes with olive oil. Drizzle the brats and onions with balsamic vinegar. This is optional, but it’s so good. Sprinkle garlic salt over everything. Place in a 425 degree oven and let the magic happen.

Here’s what’s going to happen: the delicious juices from the bratwurst will make their way onto the onions, then over to the peppers. The potatoes will roast, but will still be done once everything else is done.

The Magic Of Caramelization

The peppers will caramelize, thanks to the sausage juices and olive oil. Your mouth will water about halfway into the cooking process, because you will smell the sausage juices mixing with the balsamic vinegar.

You’ll cry a bit, because you KNOW you can’t take out the sheet pan yet, since the potatoes will need the full time to cook. The sausages will come out with crispy skin, as will the potatoes. You’ll cry again, then eat everything in site. It’s OK; dinner fairies are allowed to cry.
