Ingredients
- FOR THE SHEET PAN:
- 2 small-medium sweet potatoes, diced (about 350g)
- 3/4 lb Brussels sprouts, halved (about 350g)
- 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 4 lean chicken sausages, sliced
- FOR SERVING:
- 1 oz crumbled goat cheese
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- MAPLE TAHINI SAUCE:
- 1 1/2 tbsp tahini
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1–2 tbsp warm water
- salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and red onion with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread vegetables in a single layer on prepared sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together tahini, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and 1 tbsp warm water. Add more water as needed until pourable. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove pan from oven, add sliced sausages to the vegetables, and toss gently. Return to oven for 10-12 minutes or until sausages are heated through and vegetables are caramelized.
- Drizzle maple tahini sauce over the sheet pan, then sprinkle with goat cheese and parsley before serving.
Notes
Tips: For crispier vegetables, avoid overcrowding the pan. Use two pans if needed.
Substitutions: Swap chicken sausages for plant-based alternatives or use feta instead of goat cheese.
Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in oven for best texture.
