This 10 Minute Air Fryer Chicken Sausage and Veggies recipe combines tender chicken sausage, crispy veggies, and savory seasoning, all cooked in the air fryer in just 10 minutes. It's a quick, healthy, and flavorful meal perfect for busy days.

Ingredients

1 large red bell pepper – cut into 1-inch pieces

1 large orange bell pepper – cut into 1-inch pieces

1 red onion – peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

1 medium zucchini – cut into 1-inch pieces

1 tablespoon avocado oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon kosher salt

Pinch of black pepper

1 package chicken sausage (12 oz) – I used a robust Italian flavor

Instructions

  1. Chop the veggies and add them to a large bowl. Drizzle them with avocado oil and toss to coat them evenly.
  2. In a smaller bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the spice blend over the veggies and toss to coat.
  3. Slice the chicken sausage into ¾ inch rounds and add it to the bowl with the veggies. Toss everything together.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (if required) and lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  5. Add the seasoned veggies and sausage to the air fryer basket in an even layer. Cook for 10 minutes, flipping the mixture halfway through the cooking time. If your air fryer is small, you may need to cook it in batches.
  6. Once the chicken sausage and veggies are done, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately. For a complete meal, serve with cooked cauliflower rice or brown rice if desired.

Notes

  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms, carrots, or broccoli. Just be sure to cut them into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
  • If you like a little heat, add red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper to the spice blend.
  • You can use different varieties of sausage such as kielbasa, turkey sausage, or any other preferred flavor.
  • Avocado oil works great here, but you can also try olive oil or coconut oil for different flavor profiles.
  • This recipe is Whole30 compliant as long as you choose a Whole30-approved sausage and avoid any sugar or additives in the seasoning.
