For this easy recipe, I used a smoky mushroom and swiss chicken sausage by Amylu that I picked up at my local Costco grocery store. This same brand also makes a tasty apple gouda chicken sausage that would pair nicely here as well.

If you can’t find this brand, look for Aidells dinner chicken sausages. They too make a smoky swiss and mushroom chicken sausage as well as an andouille chicken sausage which is also a big favorite.

Chicken sausages come in so many different flavors and varieties, half the trouble is deciding which one to pick! Chicken is just so darn versatile that the varieties of sausage in this category are almost endless.

So many flavors so little time…

For this particular recipe, I wanted to create a quick and healthy dinner to cozy up with on cool autumn evenings. That’s sorta what I did last fall with this Italian sausage and acorn squash bake! For this newer recipe, crisp and tart green granny smith apple just seemed like a perfect fit. It bakes up nicely with rough cut russet potatoes, roasted broccoli, and smoky chicken sausage slices.

The apple slices roast in the oven until sweet and tender while large chopped onion adds layers of caramelized savory flavor. They both add layers of sweet and savory to the dish in their own special way. Here’s how to put it together before we toss it all up to roast…

Cut the Broccoli and Slice The Chicken Sausage

Pre-heat your oven to 450 degrees. Spray a 26 x 18 inch sheet pan with a thin layer of your favorite non-stick spray. Additionally, we’ll toss the ingredients in a little bit of olive oil to be sure nothing sticks. Start by slicing your chicken sausage on a diagonal into half inch slices. Next, cut a large head of fresh broccoli into florets. Add these to your sheet pan along with the sliced sausage.

Cube Russet Potatoes and Slice An Apple

Next, cut two medium russet potatoes into large cubes and add to the sheet pan. Core a large green granny smith apple, removing the seeds, and slice. Add the apple slices to the sheet pan with the vegetables.

Add Sliced Onion To the Apple Chicken Sausage Sheet Pan

Lastly, large dice or slice a large onion and toss in with the sausage and vegetables in the sheet pan. You can use white onion, yellow onion, or red onion. Quartered shallots would make a nice addition as well.

Season and Toss Everything with Drizzles of Olive Oil

When you’ve finished adding the vegetables and sausage to the sheet pan, drizzle everything with fruity golden olive oil. Season with pinches of coarse sea salt and cracked black pepper.

Season with Herbs and Toss Everything To Coat In Oil

Sprinkle on the dried parsley and toss everything together on the sheet pan until evenly coated with olive oil. Alternatively, you might sprinkle with some of your other favorite fresh herbs or dried herbs. You could add herbs such as dill, fresh basil, oregano, or rosemary.

Spread In An Even Layer and Bake

When finished tossing, spread everything out into an even layer. Place the sheet pan in a pre-heated 450 degree oven. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes or until veggies are tender and sausage slices are lightly browned.

When the baking time is up, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Serve hot along with your favorite side dishes.

Simple steamed rice or even a little orzo pasta would both make nice backdrops for the sheet pan chicken sausage. If you wanna keep the fare light, serve with a nice green salad.

I kept things simple with a mix of broccoli, potato, green apple, and onion. Alternatively, you could easily add some of your other favorite seasonal fall vegetables. Sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts, and cubed butternut squash all make great additions to this easy baked apple chicken sausage recipe.
