Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the ingredients evenly in the sheet pan.
Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent sticking and allow for easy cleanup.
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced kielbasa, diced potatoes, sliced red bell peppers, and sliced yellow onion, ensuring all components are ready for seasoning.
Add Olive Oil: Drizzle the olive oil over the combined ingredients and toss thoroughly to coat each piece evenly, which promotes browning and flavor.
Season Mixture: Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper over the mixture, then toss again to distribute the seasonings uniformly across all the ingredients.
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned mixture evenly out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. Stir the mixture halfway through cooking to promote even browning and to prevent sticking.
Cool and Serve: Once the potatoes are tender and the ingredients are nicely browned, remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your hearty meal!

Notes

You can substitute kielbasa with other smoked sausages if preferred.
For extra crispiness, spread the ingredients in a single layer and avoid crowding the pan.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as zucchini or carrots according to your preference.
This dish reheats well and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
