Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 1 lb kielbasa sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces (smoked Polish-style recommended)
Vegetables
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered into roughly 1-inch pieces
- 1 head broccoli, cut into medium florets
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
Sauce and Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for tossing vegetables)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 cloves garlic, freshly minced
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for the sauce)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) to prepare for roasting the ingredients.
- Prepare and roast vegetables and kielbasa: In a large bowl, combine sliced kielbasa, baby potatoes, broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and red onion. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring pieces aren’t crowded to allow for proper roasting. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender, kielbasa edges are lightly browned, and broccoli is tender with slightly crisped tips—check potatoes for doneness at 20 minutes if pieces are larger.
- Make the honey garlic sauce: While roasting, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon olive oil, oregano, black pepper, and salt in a small bowl until fully combined.
- Coat with sauce and continue roasting: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and evenly drizzle the honey garlic sauce over the roasted ingredients. Gently toss to coat everything.
- Final roasting and caramelization: Return the pan to the oven and roast for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and slightly caramelized. For extra caramelization, switch the oven to broil on high for the last 1 to 2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning as garlic can char quickly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
Notes
- Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
- You can substitute Brussels sprouts, carrots, or zucchini for the vegetables if preferred.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; not recommended for freezing.
- Reheat leftovers in a skillet over medium heat or in the oven at 350 degrees F.
- Watch carefully during broiling to avoid burning the garlic.
