Chicken Sausage with Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower

When it comes to easy anti-inflammatory dinners, this Chicken Sausage with Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower couldn’t be easier.

Chicken sausage is one of my favorite ways to eat chicken because it’s a little different than our same ole’, same ole’ chicken, and you can find it with delicious add-ins like feta and sundried tomato.

Broccoli and cauliflower are cold-weather staples, but an important part of an anti-inflammatory diet for their phytochemicals.

This entire meal is super simple and low carb, which is important for keeping blood sugar under control, thereby controlling chronic inflammation.

This recipe is also a snap to meal prep! 😉

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.

  4. Drizzle oil, then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. Place broccoli and cauliflower pan into the oven for 25-30 minutes.
  6. Cut the chicken sausage links into bite-sized pieces.
  7. In a skillet, heat the sausage until warm and golden.

Notes + Make it easier

*Most chicken sausage is already pre-cooked, you need only heat it up. But CONFIRM this, as the sausage will need to cook much longer to ensure it’s fully cooked if it doesn’t specify ‘precooked’ or ‘fully cooked’ on the label.

*Save time by buying broccoli and cauliflower pre-chopped.

*If you’ve prepped/roasted the broccoli and cauliflower ahead of time, reheat it in the microwave while warming the chicken sausage in a skillet.
