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.

Sheet Pan Shrimp Fried Rice

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.
