This hearty pan of sticky, honey mustard-glazed sausages, brussels sprouts and potatoes only adds to the argument that sheet-pan dinners make the best weeknight meals. As the sausages roast, they yield a delicious fat that coats and seasons the caramelized vegetables. Use any fresh sausage you like, as long as it pairs well with the honey mustard. Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like squash, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, carrots or cabbage. The mustard seeds and nuts provide texture and crunch, but leave them out if you prefer.

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 450 degrees, and place a sheet pan in the oven. Score the sausages in a few places on both sides, making sure not to cut all the way through. Transfer to a large bowl with the brussels sprouts, potatoes and 2 tablespoons olive oil, and stir until coated. (If the mixture seems dry, add a little more oil.) Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Spread the mixture in an even layer on the heated baking sheet, and arrange the vegetables cut-sides down. Roast 15 minutes, until the brussels sprouts and potatoes start to soften. (The sausages will not be cooked through yet.)

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the honey, mustard and mustard seeds, if using.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle the honey mustard over the sausages and vegetables, and toss or shake to coat. Flip the sausages. Sprinkle with almonds, if using. Roast until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are golden and tender, another 10 minutes or so. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

As a great UK fan of NYT cooking for more years than I can mention, can I thank you all for your kindness and advice? Yes, I have had to buy an set of American cups, I keep forgetting what Cilantro is, God knows what Kosher salt is , I cannot source any of the Deep South ingredients, you have no idea what Spotted Dick is and the joy of a chip butty or fish and chips with curry sauce, "……… BUT NYT recipes have become everyday staples in our house and the comments are the most important. Xx

To me, the changes people make to the recipe is the best part. Thank you for sharing.

Used cubed sweet potatoes (on hand), more mustard (mix of Dijon and grainy), and less honey (our preference). Yes, yes, I know, "you didn't make this", but honestly, we really enjoyed it. Super easy, great balance of flavors, and a big sheet of heavy duty foil meant almost no clean up.

Anne

Love these comments. Will make this for dinner tonight, post Thanksgiving. Hurrah for no mashed taters, dressing, or turkey! Will use sweet potatoes and andouille sausage, and add quartered sweet onion and apple chunks. Maybe some saurkraut on the side? We have to get our veggies and prebiotics!!

I used Johnsonville beef brats, which were already cooked, so I didn’t add them to the pan until the last 15 minutes. I also did the Ina Garten thing with the potatoes, simmering them 8 minutes, then draining and shaking the pot before putting them on the parchment paper. I quadrupled the honey mustard, thinking I’d have enough left over to dip, but it was just enough to cover everything. I also added three carrots and a head of garlic, separated into cloves and peeled. It was all delicious!

Don’t be like me and realize you don’t have honey after starting the recipe! Buy if you do, a simple maple syrup/balsamic vinaigrette glaze was a great substitute. Looking forward to actually trying the recipe as written next time!
