Equipment
Ingredients
- 16 oz precooked link sausage kielbasa, turkey kielbasa or chicken sausage ** see note
- 1 bell pepper green, red, orange, or yellow (or mini bell peppers)
- ½ large red onion sliced
- 1 medium zucchini sliced
- 1 ½ cup bite size broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
- ¼-1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tsp+ optional seasoning- Italian seasoning herbs de Provence, dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 F.
- Add the sliced sausages, bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and broccoli to a large bowl. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and optional seasonings such as Italian seasoning or dried parsley and combine everything together.
- Add the seasoned sausage and veggies to the air fryer basket, spreading them out. They won't be in a single layer but you might need to cook this in 2 batches if you have a very small air fryer.
- Cook the air fryer sausage and veggies at 400 F for 12-15 minutes or until the vegetables are soft, starting to brown, and are cooked through, shake or flip the sausage and veggie mix halfway during cooking.
- Adjust seasoning as preferred. Sprinkle with more herbs before serving as a garnish. This is great served with a side of rice or cauliflower rice.
Notes
If you're using kielbasa sausage, the packages often are sold in 12-14 oz ropes, you can just use 1 package instead of making it an exact 16 oz (1 lb) of protein.
If you're using pre-cooked chicken sausage links, any of your favorite brands will work! We love the Aidell's flavored chicken sausages (roasted garlic gruyere is fantastic), Trader Joe's makes some good varieties too.
This is an easy recipe to customize the vegetables! Other great options are cauliflower florets, green beans, mushrooms, and baby tomatoes. You can also add small cubed potatoes, squash, or sweet potatoes.
This recipe is great for meal prep lunches or dinners too! We love to make more than one batch and divide it into meal prep containers for the week for lunch. Serve with cauliflower rice for low carb or brown rice, sweet potatoes, or quinoa.
