Description

A vibrant and easy one-pan meal featuring roasted chicken sausage, bell peppers, and avocado, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt, divided
  • 1 large avocado
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 medium jalapeno, minced
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 package (11 oz) al fresco Roasted Red Pepper and Asiago chicken sausages, sliced into 1/4-inch pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Combine sliced peppers, onions, and olive oil in a medium bowl. Toss to coat the veggies in the olive oil.
  3. Add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the mix. Toss everything until well combined.
  4. Spread the seasoned veggies onto a large rimmed baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and gently move the peppers to one half of the pan.
  6. Add the sliced chicken sausages on the other half, ensuring they’re spread out to allow for browning. Return the pan to the oven.
  7. Roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the veggies are soft and the chicken sausage is beautifully browned.
  8. Mix avocado, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Use a fork to mash the ingredients together, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. To serve, spoon 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice into a bowl. Top with 1/4 of the roasted peppers and 1/4 of the sausage. Add a generous spoonful of smashed avocado and Greek yogurt on top, and finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
