Chicken Sausage Vegetable Skillet is becoming a go-to one-pan meal for my family. In 25 minutes, a delicious and nutritious dinner is served. I use chicken apple sausage which is loaded with flavor. They are complemented by peppers, zucchini, and Brussels sprouts which give a bang of veggies that add freshness to this meal.
Chicken Sausage Vegetable Skillet
Chicken sausage comes in so many wonderful flavors but for this recipe, I like to use the sausage flavored with apple. Especially after the Holidays, I like to up my veggies and this is the perfect meal.
The veggies complement each other very well. However, if you want to change things up, feel free to swap out your favorite veggies. If you don't like one of the veggies, leave them out.
Ingredients
We use Aidells brand but any of your favorite sausages can be used in this recipe.
Variations
If swapping veggies, just be sure to add vegetables that cook similiar to each other. Broccoli, mushrooms, and string beans will work well.
For the peppers, any of your favorite color peppers.
As for the onions, yellow onions or shallots are great.
Step by Step Instructions
- Warm your skillet over medium heat. Once your skillet is warm, lightly spray or oil the skillet. Add in your bell peppers and onions. Cook until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stirring often.
- Mix in Brussels sprouts and zucchini. Cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Stir often. Add more cooking spray or oil, if needed.
- Add in the sausage. Cook for an additional three minutes. Stir often. Add more cooking spray or oil, if needed. Stir in your minced garlic, salt, and black pepper into the skillet mixture for about 1 minute to release the flavors of the garlic, but do not burn it. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl.
Storage Tips
Keep leftovers in the fridge, covered for up to 3 days.
