How to Make a Kielbasa Potato and Cabbage Sheet Pan Dinner
Cut the potatoes into chunks.
I like to use red potatoes for making sheet pan meals because they seem to hold up better than Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
They don’t fall apart once they become fork-tender.
Slice the cabbage into bite-size pieces and the red pepper into strips.
Spread the sausage coins, potatoes, bell pepper, and cabbage out over a rimmed baking sheet.
Drizzle the sausage and vegetables with olive oil. Toss the ingredients together to coat.
Season the ingredients with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
Toss the ingredients together, then spread them evenly over the sheet pan.
Place the sheet pan into the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender and all ingredients are hot throughout.
Serve at once.
Cabbage and Smoked Sausage Recipe Tips
Does it matter what type of potatoes I use when making sheet pan recipes?
I like to use red potatoes for making sheet pan meals because they seem to hold up better than Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
Red potatoes are easier to toss, and they won’t fall apart when you are doing so.
My family doesn’t like cabbage. Will this sheet pan dinner still be good if I use just sausage and potatoes?
If your family isn’t a fan of cabbage, you can opt to leave it out of this sheet pan dinner – no problem.
IF, however, you can get your family to give this sheet pan meal WITH the cabbage included, they will see that the cabbage totally takes on the other delicious flavors of the dish, making them prominent.
The cabbage is truly so good in this meal.
What type of baking sheet should be used for making sheet pan meal?
A heavy-duty (or commercial grade) sheet pan is key for promoting even browning when making sheet pans meals.
Good browning of all the ingredients is what contributes to deeper, richer flavors in anything we cook. A heavy-duty sheet pan is worth the investment.

I made this meal yesterday, changed it up a little. Put some carrots with the meal. Had to cook a little longer for carrots to be tender. About 8 minutes. Everyone enjoyed it.
Thanks.
