→ Vegetables

02 - 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
03 - 2 bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange), sliced into strips
04 - 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

→ Seasonings

06 - 3 tablespoons olive oil
07 - 1 teaspoon dried oregano

09 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
10 - 3/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
11 - 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
12 - Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

→ Garnish

13 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
14 - Lemon wedges

# Directions:

01 - Set the oven to 425°F and allow it to fully preheat.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine halved potatoes, sliced bell peppers, and red onion wedges. Add olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Toss thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly.
03 - Distribute the seasoned vegetables evenly across a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange Italian sausages nestled among the vegetables.
04 - Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 35 minutes, flipping the sausages and stirring the vegetables halfway through. Roast until potatoes are golden and tender with a fork, and sausages reach an internal temperature of 160°F.
