Equipment

air fryer
cutting board
knife
mixing bowl
tongs or spatula

Ingredients

12 oz chicken sausage, sliced (3–4 links)
2 cups bell peppers, sliced
1.5 cups zucchini, sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
0.5 cup red onion, sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
0.5 tsp salt
0.5 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes.
Slice the chicken sausage into ½-inch rounds and chop all vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
Add sausage and vegetables to a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
Spread the mixture in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding.
Cook for 12–15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking for even browning.
Check that sausage is browned and vegetables are tender with slightly crisp edges. Serve immediately.

Notes

Cut ingredients evenly for consistent cooking. Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to ensure proper crisping. You can use pre-cooked, raw, or vegetarian sausage. Adjust seasoning to taste or try variations like spicy, smoky, or lemon herb blends.
