Ingredients
- 8 links fully cooked chicken sausage
- 1 large red bell pepper - cored and cut into thin strips
- 1 large green bell pepper - cored and cut into thin strips
- 1 large orange bell pepper - cored and cut into thin strips
- 1 red onion - halved then sliced (half moons)
- 1 pound grape/cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 TBSP dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 cup EVOO/avocado oil
- sea salt and black pepper - to taste
Instructions
- Set your oven to the broil function and arrange a rack about 6 inches or so from the heat source.
- Score the sausage links in several places but do not cut all the way through.
- Place the bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes in a mixing bowl. Add garlic, thyme, oregano, paprika, a large pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Drizzle in the oil, and toss to make sure the vegetables are well-coated.
- Arrange the vegetables in one layer on a large parchment or foil lined baking sheet. Add the sausage, nestling the sausage links between the spread veggies.
- Slide the baking sheet under the broiler for 8 to 10 minutes (watching carefully) until the veggies have softened and the sausage is looking nicely charred.
- Once done to your liking, remove from oven and sprinkle salt and pepper to taste, and enjoy!
