One Pan Chicken Fajitas

This ONE PAN RECIPE is easy to prepare and cook! With prep and cook time, this delicious meal can be done within 30 minutes (20 minutes of which you don’t need to do anything while the oven does all the work). More good news is that this recipe is kid-friendly!!

The below recipe feeds two adults with potential leftovers for the next day or could be enough for one meal for a family of 4. Don’t be afraid to add more chicken and veggies and increase the seasonings if you want more fajitas! I sometimes make TWO PANS for recipes like this so we can have them for lunches or a second quick dinner during the week ;)

One Pan Sausage, Asparagus + Sweet Potatoes

One Pan Recipes are meant to make your life easier! You can significantly cut-down on cooking time without sacrificing the taste or nutritional benefits of a healthy meal! I can’t stress enough the importance of using high-quality meat for this recipe as sausage can come with lots of unwelcome preservatives and fillers. I recommend getting organic when possible, and if not look for the nitrate-free varieties.

One Pan Sausage, Asparagus and Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 package of organic mild chicken sausage (or preferred flavor.

  • 2 sweet potatoes

  • Bunch of asparagus

  • Everything But the Bagel Seasoning

  • Pink salt + pepper

  • Extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

  2. Cut up sausages, dice sweet potatoes and cut the ends off of the asparagus.

  3. Add to sheet pain and drizzle with olive oil, Everything But the Bagel Seasoning (I got it from Trader Joe’s), pink salt and pepper.

  4. Cook for 25-30 minutes.

    If your sausage is precooked already may want to remove it from oven sooner than the veggies, depending on the consistency you like (we prefer that grilled taste so I leave it in for the duration).

  5. Let the pan cool and serve using spatula for easy removal.

**DIY Everything But the Bagel Seasoning

The Everything But the Bagel Seasoning blend is a favorite in our house for breakfasts, lunches and dinners! If you don’t have it handy, you can easily make your own blend! It consists of sesame seeds (white and black), sea salt flakes, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, and poppy seeds. Combine the ingredients and sprinkle on the meat and veggies.

TIP: If you like spicier food, by all means you can use a hot or seasoned sausage blend instead. The mild version we use has a little bit of a kick to it already, so combined with the seasoning it’s quite flavorful.
