Equipment

1 large sheet pan (lined with parchment paper for easier cleanup)
Sharp knife and cutting board
Mixing bowl
Wooden spoon or spatula

Ingredients

1 lb smoked sausage chicken or turkey works great, sliced into rounds
2 medium sweet potatoes about 1 lb, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
2 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic minced
3 tbsp honey
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes optional, for heat
Salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh thyme to taste

Instructions

Prep the oven and sheet pan:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Chop and toss:

Dice your sweet potatoes into small cubes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add olive oil, garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.

Roast the potatoes first:

Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes, giving them a head start.

Add sausage and glaze:

While the potatoes are roasting, whisk together honey and soy sauce. Slice the sausage into rounds. After 15 minutes, remove the sheet pan and add the sausage. Drizzle everything with the honey soy glaze, tossing lightly to coat.

Finish roasting:

Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 10–12 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized and the sausage edges are golden.

Add herbs and serve:

Sprinkle with fresh thyme before serving.

💡 Tip: Flip the potatoes once halfway through roasting so they crisp evenly.
