Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz smoked sausage (sliced into 1/4-inch rounds)
- 4 medium red potatoes (diced into 1/2-inch cubes)
- 2 large bell peppers (assorted colors, sliced into strips)
- 1 medium zucchini (sliced into 1/4-inch rounds)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 sheets parchment-lined or heavy-duty aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the vegetables by dicing the potatoes, slicing the bell peppers into strips, and cutting the zucchini into rounds. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the sliced smoked sausage to the bowl with the vegetables.
Drizzle the olive oil over the sausage and vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
Cut four sheets of foil, each approximately 12x18 inches. If using parchment-lined foil, ensure the parchment side faces up.
Divide the sausage and vegetable mixture evenly among the foil sheets, placing it in the center of each sheet.
Fold the foil over the mixture, bringing the edges together. Seal the edges tightly to form a packet, ensuring no steam escapes during cooking.
Place the foil packets on the preheated grill or on a baking sheet if using the oven. Cook for 20–25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the sausage is heated through.
Carefully open the foil packets (beware of hot steam) and serve directly from the packet for easy cleanup. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley before serving.
