A hot sheet pan turns humble cabbage and potatoes into crisp-edged, deeply savory vegetables. Slices of smoked sausage add plenty of seasoning, while a tangy Dijon coating ties the whole budget-friendly dinner together.

Sheet-Pan Sausage, Cabbage, and Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes, quartered
- 1 medium yellow onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided
- 14 ounces fully cooked smoked kielbasa or chicken sausage, sliced 1/2 inch thick
- 1/2 medium green cabbage, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 6 cups)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Directions
- 1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Place the potatoes and onion on a large rimmed sheet pan. Toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 15 minutes.
- 2. Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil with the Dijon, garlic, paprika, thyme, remaining salt, and remaining pepper.
- 3. Add the sausage and cabbage to the pan. Pour over the mustard mixture and toss carefully. Spread everything into an even layer.
- 4. Roast for 18 to 22 minutes more, flipping once, until the potatoes are fork-tender, the cabbage edges are browned, and the sausage is steaming hot.
- 5. Drizzle with apple cider vinegar, toss, and serve.
Helpful Tips
- Do not crowd the pan; use two pans if the vegetables cannot sit mostly in one layer.
- Cut dense cabbage-core pieces smaller than the leafy portions so they finish together.
- Buying a whole head of cabbage and store-brand sausage helps stretch this dinner across six servings.
Storage and Reheating
Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat on a sheet pan at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes for the best texture.
Food Safety
This recipe uses fully cooked sausage. Reheat it until steaming hot; if substituting raw sausage, cook it to the safe temperature printed on its package and verify with a thermometer.
