Description
A one-pan feast with crispy roasted broccoli, savory chicken sausage, and gooey cheese tortellini. A hearty, crowd-approved meal that’s easy to prepare and full of cheesy, tender flavor.
Ingredients
12 oz cheese tortellini
4 cups broccoli florets (1.5-inch chunks)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb halal-certified spicy or mild chicken sausage, sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup grated Parmesan (or vegan cheese alternative)
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)
Toss broccoli with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper on a sheet pan
Arrange chicken sausage slices on the pan with broccoli
Pour marinara sauce over the sausage and broccoli
Sprinkle Parmesan and Italian seasoning evenly
Roast for 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbly
Notes
Chicken sausage adds savory depth—opt for halal-certified if desired
Marinara sauce prevents cheese from burning
