Sheet Pan Sausage Parmesan With Garlicky Broccoli Recipes

SHEET PAN SAUSAGE PARMESAN WITH GARLICKLY BROCCOLI RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Step 1 Heat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare sauce: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until shimmering. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, basil sprig, salt and pepper, and bring to a brisk simmer. Simmer until sauce is very thick and most of the moisture is evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes. It should be thicker than the usual marinara sauce. Remove and discard basil sprig. Step 2 While sauce is cooking, toss broccoli with oil, red pepper flakes and salt on a quarter-size rimmed baking sheet (or use a regular sized rimmed baking sheet), and place in oven. Step 3 Arrange sausage in a single layer on a quarter-size rimmed baking sheet or in a 9-by-13-inch roasting pan, and roast along with broccoli until golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Flip sausages over so browned sides are on top. Step 4 When you flip the sausages, remove broccoli from oven and toss with sliced garlic. (Reserve grated garlic for later.) Drizzle broccoli with a little more oil. Return pan to oven and continue to roast broccoli and sausages until sausages are cooked through and broccoli is tender and browned, about 5 minutes longer. Step 5 Meanwhile, mix ricotta with grated garlic. Step 6 When broccoli is done, remove from oven and tent with foil to keep warm. Top sausage with tomato sauce and dollops of ricotta, then drizzle with olive oil and grind pepper generously over top. Sprinkle on mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly, and the garlic is opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Or if you prefer you can broil the cheese to melt it, 1 to 3 minutes. Step 7 Serve sausages, sauce and cheeses with broccoli on the side. Pass crusty bread for sopping up the tomato sauce.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGE MEATBALLS WITH TOMATOES AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees with one rack in the lower third and one in the upper. On one sheet pan, combine the tomatoes, broccoli and mushrooms with 1/4 cup oil. Season with 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes and salt to taste. Toss to combine, then arrange the tomatoes so they are cut-side up. Roll the sausage into 1-inch balls. (There should be about 30.) Distribute them around the vegetables. Sprinkle the entire sheet pan with 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Roast for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brush the cut sides of the bread with about 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil. Spread the grated garlic on the bread, then sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon oregano and salt to taste. Cut into 3- to 4-inch pieces. Grease another sheet pan with olive oil, then place the bread on the pan, cut-side up.
• After 15 minutes, gently shake the pan to flip the meatballs. Sprinkle the entire pan with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan, concentrating your efforts on the tomatoes and the empty pan edges so that some Parmesan has room to crisp. Return the meatball sheet pan to the lowest rack and place the bread sheet pan on the higher rack. Roast until the bread is golden at the edges, the broccoli tips are crispy and the meatballs are cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. (If the broccoli and meatballs need a little more time, remove the bread from the oven, cover loosely with foil and continue to roast the other sheet pan for 5 more minutes.)
• Use a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any cheese that has stuck to the bottom of the pan. Serve everything with the garlic bread and more grated cheese.

SHEET PAN DINNER WITH SAUSAGE AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup and spray with cooking spray.
• Combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add potatoes and toss to coat. Place potatoes skin side-down on the baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender when pierced with a fork, 23 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven; stir.
• Mix remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, onion flakes, paprika, parsley, and oregano in the same bowl. Add sausage, green beans, bell pepper, and onion; mix until well combined. Add to the baking sheet; spread in a flat layer.
• Roast until vegetables are tender and potatoes and sausage pieces are browned, tossing halfway through the roasting process, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

CRISPY SHEET-PAN BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Set the racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat it to 425°F.
• Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the broccoli between the sheets, arranging them in a single layer. Drizzle each sheet of broccoli with ¼ cup oil, then season each with ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Roast, stirring once and rotating the sheets halfway through, until the broccoli is crispy and charred in spots, 35 to 40 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if desired.
