02 - 2 cups broccoli florets
03 - 1 red bell pepper, chopped
04 - 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
05 - 2 medium carrots, sliced
06 - 1 small red onion, sliced

10 - 1 tbsp olive oil

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
02 - Arrange sliced kielbasa and all prepared vegetables evenly on the sheet pan.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, mustard, pepper, paprika, and salt.
04 - Drizzle honey garlic sauce over sausage and vegetables. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
05 - Spread ingredients back into an even layer. Roast in preheated oven for 23-25 minutes, or until veggies are just tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
06 - Remove from oven. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The entire meal cooks on one pan, which means almost zero cleanup and more time to actually enjoy your evening
  • That honey garlic glaze gets into every crevice of the vegetables and sausage, creating these sticky, caramelized bites that are impossible to stop eating
02 -
  • Overcrowding the pan is the fastest way to ruin this—when ingredients are piled on top of each other, they steam and turn soggy instead of developing that caramelized exterior you are looking for
  • Stirring halfway through is nonnegotiable because the glaze can burn in spots, and redistributing the ingredients ensures everything roasts evenly
03 -
  • Let the sheet pan cool for a few minutes before serving—this gives the glaze a chance to set slightly so it coats each bite instead of running off onto the plate
  • If you like heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the pan before roasting, and they will toast and infuse the entire dish with a gentle warmth
