20 Minute Skillet Sausage & Zucchini

​Simple ingredients, huge flavor. 🥒 Sliced savory sausage sauteed with bright bell peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, and onions, topped with fresh chopped herbs. Proof that eating well doesn't have to be complicated! 🌿🍽️

Used Polish sausage - would use half of it next time, or double or triple the veggies. Would be nice to cut all veggies and have ready as a freezer meal.

Add rice minus onions

Better the 2nd day as these things sometimes are. Served with couscous.

Added more salt but otherwise very good! A great way to get those servings of veggie in.

Put in exstra spices because it needed it but very nice 👌

Prep definitely took way more than 5 minutes, also added diced potatoes the second time, I feel like it really enhanced the textures and flavors

Love it

Added some bbq sauce for a little more depth of flavor

Next time I might try more spices or more of the seasoning because this made a lot for the ammount of seasoning that was used. 2 rope sausages were used.

Nice. Boys liked it. Added potatoes. And cooked separately corn also. I used 6 chorizo sausages and 12 chipolatas. Just enough...

You could use a frozen bag of squash instead of just the zucchini

Used hot sausage. Added in red pepper flakes. Cooked carrots with the sausage.

I added red potatoes and it was tasty

Pretty straightforward and a great side to pasta

I used beef sausage and doubled it. It was so very good.

I used a shallot, yellow squash & fresh garlic. I added red & pablano peppers, celery, 1/4 teaspoon each of thyme, sage, red pepper & a splash of white wine. I also added fresh mushrooms & an apple for sweetness. It needed a bit more seasoning so I added capers, fresh basil & parsley. Great weeknight dinner! I served it with brown rice & will add this to our dinner rotation.

A quick, easy meal that's ready quickly. Mu kids, while they like raw zucchini, hated the cooked zucchini.

Added some carrots 🥕 and other seasonings ✨️ was delicious

I used chorizo sausages, doubled the seasoning, and it turned out flavorful!

Muy bueno con salsa verde en una tortilla

This has the potential to be very good. However, the seasoning lacks flavor. If we try it again, we will increase seasoning, maybe add ginger, honey, and soy sauce. Will let you know...

Not enough flavor

It was okay.

A lot tastier than I expected. I did add a little light soy sauce before serving just for taste.

Used beef sausage. Didn't include zucchini because I didn't have any on hand, but will include next time. Super easy and quick!

I added potatoes.

Pretty good recipe! Added some chickpeas for density.

it was easy and I love how many vegetables in here is nice and colorful and it it smells delicious

This was awesome. I made some rice to go with it

We added Tzatziki sauce. So good.

Easy and amazing!

So I added potatoes and a few more spices but it was really really good. Also I accidently got cheesy hotdogs instead of sausage but I think those tasted better.

It was nice for a quick and easy dinner. Add with some pasta.

Made it with a side of mashed potatoes. Used fancy sausages- it was nice, and easy to make.

Definitely added more spices than it calls for because we're in south Louisiana and need everything to burn our taste buds off.

I thought it was very tasty

It needs something to pull it all together. I will make it again and use less oil and maybe a small amount of some sort of sauce..skip the basil and add..have to think on this.

Good but definitely did my own seasoning as what this calls for makes it super bland.

It was pretty bland to me, but feel like the recipe could easily be manipulated

Used only two sausages and added bamboo shoots and water chestnuts along with some Flamenco spice mix. Fabulous!

Delicious! I used spinach feta chicken sausage, doubled the seasonings, and served over brown rice with some sprinkled feta and balsamic glaze.

Add seasoning and maybe a salsa when finishing

Used the Beyond Meat Italian Sausage. Measured spices with my heart 🤌 Actually followed measurements of actual ingredients for once (I was going to use 2 peppers but decided to wait until everything was cut up and saw 2 would be too much; could probably use 2 small peppers).Very very tasty. Will probably try with couscous in the future.

Based on the feedback I used a spicy sausage and added some chili paste too, came out amazing!

The seasonings weren't enough and it would've been bland, but I just added in more of the seasonings. My family loved it and it was greatly approved by my toddler!

As others have mentioned, this dish is a little bland; I should have upped the spices a bit. However, not every dish is bursting with flavor. I served it with cauliflower rice, which I am sure added to the blandness (I would recommend white or brown rice next time). All that said, it was really good. I used a chicken/pork sausage, which was perfect. It was easy to make and quick, which checks most of my boxes...haha. I would certainly recommend it, and I will make this again.

Very easy, added mushrooms and spinach and Italian seasoning as some comments suggested. Some comments warned about the dish being too oily and i can confirm... fortunately i did some rice to eat as side dish and it did balance it out.

Flavoursome and comforting.

I added some small shell pasta to it to make it a meal. Also added Parmasen cheese to give it a kick. I also added 10snags and doubled the spices

This was delicious! I made it with smoked sausage and added mushrooms. Yum!

We did a few things differently. First, we quartered red potatoes and added those in, next we also grilled the entire meal. I seasoned each item separately since they'd be added to the grill at different times. We have a large grilling pan that worked perfect. I also changed up the seasonings a bit. In the end, we had local made TX sausage, red bell pepper, onion, zucchini and red potatoes. I paired it with a sweet corn casserole. We absolutely loved it! We will no doubt make it again.

Served over pearl couscous with a splash of olive oil over the top. Excellent quick meal for a weeknight

Delicious! Even the kids loved it!

I’d rather make this as a sheet pan instead of on the stove

I was really surprised by this simple dinner. It was delicious and quick/easy to make. The spices really made this meal amazing. Low carb, fresh and filling. I will probably use a red or orange pepper next time I make this dish, just to add a little more color.

Easy and delicious. Served with black bean and corn stuffed twice baked potatoes

Pick your favorite sausage. It will make or break the meal.

Served on rice and it was delicious!

It's a nice change for us because it's only herbs that are added no spices, it turns out surprisingly sweet with a bit of heat from the sausages. I added a touch of parmesan and extra basil to dress it.

It was easy to make but I used fresh onion and garlic. Very good

Used Cajun sausage to give it a little kick. Added rice cauliflower. Delicious 😋

I added too much seasoning, so it is hard to taste anything. Will try again and follow the recipe for seasoning.

Kids did not like this, my husband and myself loved it!

Amazing! The only thing I did differently was use ground Italian sausage since I was trying to use it up. I cooked the sausage the night before and let it cool prior to storing so that left behind a lot of the grease that otherwise would have made it into the dish; and I think it would have been too greasy for my liking as other commenters shared. Next time (and there definitely will be a next time!), I will be sure to drain off the grease or cook it in a separate pan in order to ensure the dish isn't too greasy.

Please add sweet potato

alex loved it

I’ve been making this for years. I like using all colors of peppers. It looks so colorful. I also use Aidells pre cooked chicken apple sausage from Costco. Yum!

Not a bad mid week go to. Added a tin of chopped tomatoes and oregano roast potatoes with some garlic mayo. Sausages need sauce in my opinion.

The perfect mix of veggies with meat! I loved it! I made it all in my cast iron skillet

Quick and easy. Use rolls or biscuits for some starch.

I would cut back on the second oil addition

This sausage and zuccini was delicious

Added broccoli and served it on quinoa, it was delicious!

Quick, easy, flavorfull and healthy.

One of my favorite dishes to make. It's fast, filling, and everyone loves it. It does get greasy though, nature of the dish.

Added some spinach to bulk it up a bit and a splash of Balsamic vinegar. Maybe serve with garlic baby potatoes next time. I have a very hungry family

Everyone in the family loved it

Will cook again! Was a favorite of everyone! Kids included! Used kielbasa and Cheddar jalapeños sausage.

Total win for our family! I didn't have any basil so I substituted thyme. I added some Italian cheese and crushed red pepper flakes. So good!!

Made the veggies first so I could set some aside since I'm vegetarian. Then, I cooked the sausage and added the veggies back at the end. Yummy!

Colourful meal with lots of healthy goodies. We added yellow squash based on other people's recommendations. We also added a sprinkling of worcestershire sauce. We served it with rice. Felt like it was missing something....maybe hoisen sauce...or chili sauce? Something. We plan to make it again to see if we can put our finger on it.

I sauteed the zucchini and onion for 10-15 minutes, then added 2 diced tomatoes and a handful of chopped spinach because that's what I had. Served with 1 cup of orzo pasta

Like the recipe it was easy to make next time after browning the sausage I’m going to drain the grease off (got a little too greasy) and maybe add a little more garlic.

Very good! I added little smidge of worstershire to it.

Fresh and delish 😋 I added mushrooms and seasoned with paprika, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. Will make again!

So versatile and easy! We used turkey sausage and also added broccoli and mushrooms since they needed to get used up. Also added fresh basil and parmesan at the end. What a great way to use your fresh garden veggies!

Really delicious. Next time going to add mushrooms too.

Used Cajun andouille sausage and paired it with rice very good meal

I used the beyond meats sausage and this came out soo delightful

This is so good. You can make it however you want.

Doubled the zucchini cause I like it. Added cayenne pepper, paprika, and parsley. Didn't cook the veggies all the way so they stayed crispy and fresh.

This was DEEE-lish! I forgot to add the minced garlic and it was still bomb! I used Mrs. Dash Salt-free instead of the herbs and a little bit of Kinder’s “The Blend” 🤌🏻 absolutely scrumptious

Made with andouille sausage, added a bit if a kick snd bolstered flavor. Served with cauliflower rice.

This was super amazing! The spices were just bursting with flavor. I am making this again this week.

This is one of my FAVORITE go-to meals! It's quick, easy, and DELICIOUS! I swapped smoked TURKEY sausage out for an even healthier version, and it's still DELICIOUS!

Used hot sausage that was grilled, added cherry tomatoes to the skillet and melted mozzarella on top.

Used andouille. Want to try next time with Italian.

We loved this. I made it with a turkey kielbasa and spiced it up with a little extra seasonings and some crushed red pepper. We had it with rice. I also added a little water to deglaze the pan and have something to moisten the rice. This will be going in the regular rotation.

Delicious and healthy. I didn’t measure the seasonings but did do a lot! It could’ve used even more in my opinion. I used smoke turkey sausage and that was a great choice. This would also be delicious with a maple sausage or sage sausage 🤤 I served it with garlicky quinoa - topped with fresh basil, feta, and sriracha. I would say it’s a 4/5. Could use even more seasonings! Maybe a sauce? So many possibilities! Overall- light, healthy, satisfying, and tasty. Update: added pesto when I reheated leftovers- delicious!

Not terrible, but a bit bland. Saved by using andoulli sausage.

We ate it with scrambled eggs. It tasted so refreshing.

Didn’t use the same seasonings, kinda seasoned to my liking, added squash also. Turned out delicious! Nice and fresh!Served over rice. I do think adding maybe some diced tomatoes would be yummy too!

Simple, easy, and very filling.

Absolutely delicious. We had with rice as everyone recommended. Even put some Mayo on top. Kids loved it also

Used Italian Impossible sausage. Came out great.

Easy to make, the whole family loved it. Served over rice, great meal!

Served over rice. Was full of flavor and not too heavy. I added a little chicken broth when cooking.

Let out a bunch of water when the zucchini hit the heat. Would go well on rice

Should have browned the sausage first like the recipe said. But still good 😋 Would love to try it with something other than a beef sausage next time.

It was better the next day. Also, I put it over cilantro rice.

Absolutely delicious. Like others I substituted one of the zucchinis for a yellow squash and used smoked andouille sausage.

I used 1 yellow squash and a 1 zucchini instead of 2 zucchinis. I LOVED this and will definitely be making this again! Super cheap to make and makes leftovers :)

Add diced potatoes

I used 6 smoked cheddar sausages and used a couple dashes of worcestershire sauce, and some slap ya mama's seasoning a tad salty with the added salt so will definitely modify in the future but will definitely make again

Try Smoked Turkey Sausage

This is DELICIOUS and super easy to make. You can make it more spicy or savory as you wish. We also added Sriracha mayo on top in a rice bowl style for extra flavor and leftovers! YUM!

I liked it

I added a teaspoon of chipotle paste

Swapped veggies

Super quick! Got a chipotle cheddar sausage to add a bit more flavor. It was yummy!

This dish was pretty good. I think next time I might add more Seasoning but definitely easy and will make again!

I messed up. I accidentally added way too much salt. I'll try to make this again another time. I can tell it tastes good, minus all the salt I accidentally dumped in.

So good! I used zucchini, yellow squash, peppers, and onion with the sausage . The spices as the recipe suggested! No rice.

I used hot Italian sausage.

I did hot sausage, added hot peppers and added more oil. Very good

This was really good! I cut the oregano and basil in 1/2 for preference. Served with a little bit rice but it really wasn’t needed.

Filling dinner that can be made quickly. Doubled the seasoning.

Next time will double the seasoning.

Lovely and tasty. I added rice to it. Also an easy recipe to follow

.I added some pasta too

Could definitely add more veggies

Add water chestnuts… And pick up some Yum Yum sauce… It made it very delicious

Served with rice. Quick and tasty!

Made it for my lunch, love it! Quick and easy definitely a keeper

Clever quick mix of ingredients made very tasty by the sausages.

Substitute chicken meatballs for sausage

This was perfectly simple. The spices were a great addition. My teenager asked if I could teach her how to make this for when she goes to college. We served on a small portion of rice just to round it out.

I thought it was a bit bland - needs more seasoning. I don't make zucchini very often, and when I have it I think I need to make it more! In the "vegetables my husband won't eat" list (basically: all of them), add "zucchini"..... smh

If you like the clean flavors of the veggies shining through, this is perfect! My husband and I both loved it!

So I used beef smoked sausage, tripled the seasoning (we're a heavy seasoned household), and cut the onions and peppers smaller. I also added rice just because it was very vegetable heavy for my fiance's normal taste, but we all enjoyed it

Was ok. Not sure I loved enough to make again!

Very good. My husband even had the leftovers. I would add a second bell pepper though.

Added feta and parmesan at the very end. Would be good with spinach but didn't have any. Will definitely make again.

I love the sweetness of the different colored bell peppers against the slight spiciness of the sausage. I used pork kielbasa.

I've made this as written and with some modifications because we didnt have zucchini...It's good both ways! When I modified, I doubled the peppers and I added a couple scoops of ajvar (an eggplant/red pepper spread) to make it a little saucy. Served with rice. Made leftovers.

Good and easy, I added some spinach and a touch of chicken broth and topped with Romano cheese

I actually made this two ways. As written and also by using the recipe as base for a sweeter blend - Hawaiian sausage with ginger and pineapple, chopped sweet potatoes, onions, orange bell pepper, pineapple chunks, seasoned with ginger and a splash of soy sauce - both were excellent!

Used lemon peppr sausage and pulled it out of the casing. Added sweet potato and brocolli instead of peppers and served with couscous. Healthy and easy. Would make again -- next time I might also add some feta and kalamata olives/artichoke hearts after cooking.

This was really quick, easy, and tasty! I had some tomatoes and yellow squash that needed to be used, so I added them in. I served it with spaghetti noodles for my kids, and I put some cauliflower rice with mine. I would definitely make it again!

First time making it, and loved it. I added 2 different sausages, Italian and Ukraine garlic sausage, and also added mushrooms. Will make it again.

I thought this dish had a lot of flavor and was delicious. Oddly my kids liked the vegetables more than the sausage.

Really good! I used sweet potato instead of zucchini (it went bad before I could make the dish) but but definitely will add sweet potato next time as well as the zucchini!

With more spices is delicious and so quick!

love love loveeeee

Very tasty! I did cook the onions with the sausage and then just added the vegetables in.

My family loved this and ate it all! I will be making it again!

Instead of sausage I substituted for shrimp it was Delicious 😋

Added shrimp

Very simple and easy. Perfect for a busy night.

This was really good! I added cheese tortellini and fresh spinach to make it a full on meal.

made a smaller serving and still just as expected. very simple - will have to make again!

It is so delicious! Only thing I would change is making sure I use a small onion next time and perhaps more sausage. Still very yummy! Paired it with sweet potato on the side! So good!

It was ok, not great. Needs more seasoning I think.

It was nice, but using a dry cured sausage was a mistake — ended up quite smokey when it should've probably tasted more meaty.

Super simple! Served it with some quinoa we had left over.

Great! I cooked the onions before the peppers and zucchini so that I could cook the peppers/zucchini a shorter amount of time for my family who prefers them al dente. I used turkey sausage for less grease.

Forgot to take pictures but I will the next time. I'm a vegetarian so I made one with turkey sausage for the hubs and my version I just used Gardein's Beefless Crumble. I also added a squeeze of hoisin sauce to our individual bowls. That really put the finishing touches on it. Super quick and excellent for carb watchers. Next time I'll try a different meat & vegetarian option such as chickpeas or black beans.

I would use a chicken sausage next time. All I had on hand was kielbasa.

I used Cajun sausage and it made the dish even more tasty. I loved this meal and will make it again.

It was easy and the result delicious

Didn't have much flavour.

Added shredded carrots & kale. Added a bit more garlic & a little chicken bullion. Turned out pretty good!

Ok

I added some diced up red potatoes and some grated Parmesan.

Chorizo is good to use in this

I added some more spices, mainly smoked paprika.

Used apple chicken sausage and ate over couscous with apple slices. Very juicy and delicious

I can't use bell peppers, so I used potatoes. Works really well.

Used Kielbasa Beef & Cheddar brats and it was delicious.

Added a few cut up baby potatoes, a handful julienne carrots and some extra spices top0ed with a bit if Mediterran feta So filling

Really good! Could have used less oil but otherwise really tasty. I like how versatile it is because you can add more veggies or meat to adjust ratio to your liking.

My teenage girls loved it, too!

Used brats from Costco, it was alright served by itself. I mostly made it for him because of the sausage but he was feeling too sick to eat. Works as leftovers.

Used chicken instead of sausage and served over rice. Was very tasty!

I added roasted new potatoes at the end for that extra comfort meal

Replaced one of the zucchini with a yellow squash. Very good!

Made a dressing with natural yoghurt, spices already in the recipe and 1/2 a grated cucumber. (Squeezed). The family have to have a sauce.!!!

Talk about versatile! Pretty good! I basically threw in whatever I had in the fridge in it. Pepper, green onion, kielbasa, broccoli, and zucchini. Thought about roasting some potatoes and carrots, but didn't have time. Definitely would make again!

Absolutely love this recipe, it's a family favorite! To make it heartier for a larger meal, I add a red onion and a few seasoned potatoes, but to keep it fresh I keep the recipe as is.

I love this recipe! This is my 3rd time. I seasoned with oregano, thyme, rosemary, sage, and basil. Substituted garlic and onion powder with garlic and onions. I recommend some spinach and rice if your making it a meal.

I made this with vegetarian sausage, stacked on a mound of mashed potatoes. Easy weekday meal! Delicious!

Super miami! Slidely modified with chorizo sausages.

this was super easy and yummy, will definitely be making it again!

Made it with rice and kielbasa, it's wonderful !

I made this with meatless sausages and it was really nice! We're going to batch it and have it over eggs, in tortillas, on hot dog rolls, and on its own!

Added some chilli flakes 👌

Added some potatoes, carrots, and spinach. Then I added a bit of a broth made from Better Than Bouillon and 1/4 water to give it more Flavor

Pretty versatile recipe. I used onion, peppers, and mushrooms along with the zucchini. Opted for turkey sausage as a healthier alternative. Seasonings would be easy to adjust for your taste.

Super easy, tasty! I added a lil macaroni noodles and a lil drained diced tomatoes... I will make it again!

Super fast and easy weeknight meal. Works as a sheet pan meal as well.

Delicious! I used 2 small zucchini, 1 summer squash, an aloha pepper, and a handful of cherry tomatoes along with hot sausage. So yummy 😋

Made it a meal by adding a can of diced tomatoes in sauce and cooked tricolor rotini. It was a hit. Makes leftovers for yummy lunch throughout the week

This was really good. I should have cooked 3 zucchini, but besides that turned out awesome. We had it over cauliflower rice.

Loved it!

I would add potatoes next time

Loved, loved, loved this recipe! Next time I’m adding shrimp!

Add mushroom

Good we added mushroom too

Add about a cup of a beer of your choice when browning the sausage to add a subtle sweetness and round out the flavor profile of this dish

It was super good but I made my sausage a little spicy with some Cajun seasoning and it came out amazing. The zucchini and bell peppers were great.

Super easy to make!

I added more... And added potatoes chunky rotell tomatoes and corn with some lemon pepper!

Added feta fand it was perfect!!

This was okay. Certainly easy. I have to remember to read the directions and buy pre-cooked sausage. This took longer than it needed to because I had to Cook the sausage. I also make some barley to go with to give it a little more substance.

I added mozzarella cheese to it. Delicious

So good and so easy. I used chicken Chipotle sausage with southwest and cayenne spices.

Made it with wildflower honey and apple chicken sausage.... It was fantastic!

I do this dish a lot! We have changed it up a bit adding in chopped asparagus and yellow squash just to have more variety of veggies. Also add shrimp about 5-7 minutes before it’s finished cooking. Use Cajun seasoning instead of Italian spices to kick it up on spice!

This recipe kicks ass. Always comes out perfect, delicious in a cast iron skillet, hardest thing is prep and the rest is a breeze! A go-to for when we're tired and want a low effort recipe for our meal plan.

DELISH! We served with brown rice. Everyone loved it! Very filling. Will make again!

This was delicious!

I added sundried tomato to mine. So yummy!

What kind of sauce?

Super tasty

Tip add a sauce, great quick recipe…

Delicious! Very flavorful. I will definitely make this again.

I would add potatoes next time! We served it over rice and I added red pepper flakes. Would definitely cut veggies up smaller and cook them until they were softer but it wasn’t too bad!

We made this with yellow squash and green beans instead of red bell peppers. I would call it a side rather than a main dish. The seasonings were tasty, but overall the dish was a little dry. I did the sausage on the side hopeing my little one would eat some and we ended up having it with bbq sauce.

I added frozen diced potatoes. Kids loved this!
