  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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 slightly larger 1¼-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 2 teaspoons old bay seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 package (12 ounces) chicken sausage, sliced into thin rounds
  • lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Season the vegetables by adding bell peppers, onion, and zucchini to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with avocado oil and sprinkle with Old Bay seasoning and garlic powder. Toss until well coated.
  2. Slice the chicken sausage into thin rounds and combine with the seasoned vegetables. Toss gently until evenly mixed.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F if needed. Add the sausage and vegetables to the air fryer basket in an even layer, cooking in batches if necessary. Cook for 9–11 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
  4. Transfer the cooked sausage and vegetables to a serving dish and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top. Serve warm with extra lemon wedges as desired.
  5. Enjoy! Serve as is, over rice or cauliflower rice, or in warm tortillas for easy sausage and veggie tacos.

Notes

Cutting the zucchini slightly larger than the peppers prevents overcooking.
Ensure the air fryer basket is not overcrowded for optimal cooking.
