How to Make One-Pan Sausage and Vegetable Bake with Herb Gravy

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare the Vegetables

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) fan force. Line a large baking pan (approximately 40x25cm) with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Prepare the vegetables: wash and dice the potatoes, carrots, and squash; trim and slice the green beans; and quarter the red onions.

Step 2: Roast the Vegetables

Place the prepared vegetables in the baking pan and drizzle with the olive oil. Season with sea salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the dried Italian herbs. Toss to combine and spread in an even layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

Step 3: Make the Herb Gravy

While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the gravy. Heat the broth in the microwave or on the stovetop. In a separate bowl, whisk together the hot broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, the remaining tablespoon of Italian herbs, and the cornstarch until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Add Sausage and Gravy, and Bake

Remove the vegetables from the oven and add the green beans and sausages to the baking pan. Pour the prepared herb gravy mixture over the vegetables and sausage. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the sausage is cooked through. If desired, you can turn the sausages halfway through the cooking time to ensure they brown evenly on all sides.

Step 5: Serve

Remove the pan from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the gravy to thicken slightly. Divide the sausage and vegetables among bowls and serve hot.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your vegetables, sausage, and herbs, the better the flavor of the dish.
Cut vegetables evenly: Try to cut the vegetables into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
Don’t overcrowd the pan: Make sure the vegetables and sausage have enough space on the baking sheet to cook properly. If necessary, use two baking sheets.
Adjust the seasonings: Feel free to adjust the amount of herbs or spices to your liking.
Use a meat thermometer: To ensure the sausage is cooked through, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 74°C (165°F).
