Roasted Bratwurst with Peppers and Onions
Description
The Roasted Bratwurst with Peppers and Onions recipe combines bratwurst links with sweet bell peppers and onions, coated in a vinaigrette made from olive oil, red wine vinegar, stone ground mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Roasting these together at 400ºF allows the sausages to brown and the vegetables to soften and caramelize slightly, enhancing their natural sweetness.
The bratwurst is placed into buns and optionally topped with shredded cheddar cheese, then returned to the oven briefly to melt the cheese and toast the buns. Mustard is added before serving to complement the savory and tangy flavors.
This warm sandwich makes a hearty meal, ideal for casual dinners. The stone ground mustard in the vinaigrette and on the sandwich adds a gentle tang and texture without overpowering the dish.
The recipe uses a prepared mustard, not dry powdered or seeds, which ensures smoother incorporation into the vinaigrette and toppings.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil $0.26
- 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar $0.10
- 1/2 Tbsp mustard $0.03, stone ground or whole grain
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder $0.02
- 1/8 tsp salt $0.01
- black pepper $0.05, freshly cracked
- 3 bell pepper $2.57, any color
- 1 onion $0.28
- 5 bratwurst $3.49, links
- 5 Buns $1.56
- 2 oz. cheddar cheese $0.50, optional, for topping
- 4 Tbsp mustard $0.24, optional, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a small bowl stir together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, stone ground mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set the vinaigrette aside.
- Slice the bell peppers and onion into 1/4-inch strips and place them on a large baking sheet. Add the bratwurst links to the baking sheet, then drizzle the vinaigrette over top. Toss the peppers, onions, and bratwurst until everything is coated in vinaigrette.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, then give everything a good stir. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 20-25 minutes, or until the bratwurst, peppers, and onions, have browned on the edges.
- Stuff the bratwurst, peppers, and onions into the buns and top with shredded cheddar if desired. Place them back in the oven for about 5 minutes to melt the cheese and toast the buns. Top with more mustard just before serving.
Notes
- Use prepared mustard in the vinaigrette and for topping; do not substitute with dry mustard powder or seeds.
- Roast the bratwurst and veggies at 400ºF for a total of about 45 minutes, stirring halfway for even cooking.
- Optionally add shredded cheddar to the sandwiches and bake briefly to melt.
