Baked Italian Sausage Recipes

BAKED ITALIAN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Rinse and cut cherry tomatoes in halves. Rinse and cut bell pepper in strips, then cut into 1 inch bite size chunks. Arrange in a single layer on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
• Drizzle olive oil then sprinkle Italian seasoning over the vegetables. Toss to coat.
• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or aluminum foil).
• Place sausages on the baking sheet (with or without cherry tomatoes and peppers) in a single layer, and so that sausages are not touching each other.
• Bake in the center rack at the middle of the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
• Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
