This weeknight interpretation of the classic Alsatian dish is a hearty meal of sausage, cabbage and potatoes — and it’s perfect for fall. This version takes the whole dish and makes it happen on a sheet pan for ease. Be sure to use a rimmed baking sheet to prevent the ingredients from sliding off.

Sheet Pan Sausage Choucroute Garnie

Ingredients

• 1 small head red cabbage, cut through the core into eight 1/2-inch thick wedges
• 1 lb (453g) baby red potatoes, halved if large
• 1 apple, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, halved, cored and sliced 1/4-inch thick
• 1 small yellow onion (125g), halved, peeled and cut through the root into 1/4-inch thick wedges
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp cumin or caraway seeds
• 1/2 tsp yellow mustard seeds
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 4 precooked chicken-apple sausages
• 1/4 cup parsley, roughly chopped

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

In a large bowl, gently toss the cabbage, potatoes, apple, onion, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, cumin, and mustard seeds. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and use a spatula to flip the vegetables and apples. Arrange the chicken sausages on top and return to the oven. Roast for about 10-12 minutes more, or until the sausages reach an internal temperature of 165°F and are browned and the cabbage is crisp-tender. Let cool for 5 minutes.

Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

If you love fried rice but not the extra sodium and fat in takeout versions, this recipe is for you. Packed with vegetables and lean protein, it’s a great way to use leftover brown rice. Baking everything on a preheated sheet pan in a hot oven creates crispy bits of rice while streamlining the process. Feel free to switch up the vegetables or use other quick-cooking proteins, like diced chicken breast or tofu, in place of shrimp. A generous amount of fresh ginger adds bold flavor and provides antioxidants that may support overall health (1).

Sheet Pan Shrimp Fried Rice

Ingredients 

• 2 tbsp (30g) safflower oil
• 2 tbsp black bean garlic sauce
• 3 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
• 3 cups (585g) cold cooked brown rice
• 3 cups (170g) shiitake mushrooms, caps sliced, stems discarded
• 2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
• 1 large carrot, finely diced
• 1 lb (454g) shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 3/4 cup (115g) frozen peas
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 large egg, beaten

Directions

Place a large, rimmed baking sheet in the center of the oven and preheat to 450°F (246°C).

In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, black bean garlic sauce, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce. Crumble the rice into the bowl. Add the mushrooms, celery, and carrots, and toss to combine. Carefully spread the mixture onto the preheated baking sheet in an even layer. Bake until the rice begins to brown in the corners of the pan, about 10 minutes.

Add the shrimp and peas to the rice mixture and stir with a spatula to loosen any stuck-on bits. Spread the mixture back into an even layer and continue baking until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through, about 5–6 minutes more (the shrimp should reach an internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).

Meanwhile, scramble the egg in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat until just set. Remove from heat. Stir the cooked egg into the rice mixture along with the green onions before serving.

Omega-3-rich salmon gets a creamy miso topping with crunchy panko bread crumbs in this easy one-pan meal. Radishes and baby bok choy cook in the same amount of time and are a unique combo, just when you were getting tired of the usual sheet pan veggies!

This is a great option for a quick, low-maintenance dinner, and it’s packed with anti-inflammatory properties from the salmon (1).

 Active time: 10 minutes | Total time: 25 minutes

Sheet Pan Miso Salmon With Baby Bok Choy

Ingredients

• Cooking spray
• 4 (5-oz./142g) salmon fillets, skin-on
• 3 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp white miso paste
• 1 tsp lemon zest, finely grated
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1/2 cup (42g) whole-wheat panko crumbs
• 4 small baby bok choy, halved lengthwise (quartered if larger)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and coat generously with cooking spray. Using tweezers or needle-nose pliers, remove any pin bones from the salmon fillets. Arrange the fillets skin-side down in the center of the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, miso paste, lemon zest, and lemon juice until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly over the top of each fillet, then gently press the panko crumbs onto the surface so they adhere.

In a medium bowl, toss the bok choy with the oil until evenly coated. Scatter the vegetables around the salmon and season with the salt and pepper. Roast, rotating the pan once halfway through, until the salmon is cooked through to an internal temperature of 145°F, about 12–15 minutes.

To serve, slide a spatula gently between the flesh and skin of each fillet — the skin should release easily from the foil. Transfer to plates, discarding the skin, and serve immediately.

Sumac is a spice made of the dried, ground berries of the Rhus coriaria shrub and utilized in Middle Eastern dishes like kebabs and salads to add a bright, lemony flavor. Sumac also contains powerful antioxidants that may offer therapeutic benefits for heart disease, diabetes and cancer. (1). Look for it at major retailers in the spice or international aisle, or online where dried spices are sold. Try it in hummus, soups and dishes like this quick chicken and cauliflower sheet-pan supper

This is a great low-maintenance, meal-prep option. Make it at the beginning of the week and enjoy it all week long for lunch, taking note of how the protein and fiber keep you full for several hours.

Sheet Pan Chicken With Cauliflower & Olives

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds (680g) boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 ½ -inch pieces
• 1 medium (590g) head cauliflower, trimmed into bite-size florets
• 2 cups (312g) cherry tomatoes
• 1/2 cup (70g) pitted green Castelvetrano olives (or any other large, mild green olive variety)
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 ¾ tsp sumac, divided
• ½ tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup (123g) plain low-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 small garlic clove, finely chopped and smashed with the side of a knife

Directions

Preheat the oven to 500°F (260ºC). Place a baking sheet on the center rack of the oven as it preheats. (Preheating the pan promotes faster browning and charring.)

In a large bowl, toss the chicken, cauliflower, cherry tomatoes and olives with the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and 1 ½ tsp of sumac. Pour onto the hot baking sheet and carefully arrange in an even layer with a spatula (if desired, line the hot baking sheet with foil before adding the ingredients for easier cleanup.) Bake for 15 minutes, stirring once halfway through or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center (internal temperature of 165 degrees) and the cauliflower is tender and charred in places.

While the chicken is baking, make the sauce by combining the yogurt, garlic and remaining sumac in a small bowl. Serve the sheet-pan chicken and vegetables with the yogurt sauce on the side.

Serves: 4 | Serving Size: ¼ recipe, about 1 ½ cups chicken and veggies, plus 2 tbsp yogurt sauce
