Sheet pan dinners are always fun to create. It's mixing your favorite veggies with your favorite proteins and then roasting in the oven. Yet suppose it's too hot for a working oven. What to do? Call in the air fryer.
I deicded to experiment with this. Could aubbing in an air fryer for an oven be done? Yes but on a much smaller scale. Keep in mind hteres mo roon to spread the veggies and meat. They have to be layered on top of each other and then carefully mixed halfway through the air frying.I used these smaller potatoes
These aew Yukon Gold. They were tossed with olive oil and then combined with sliced onions.
As for the protein I used already fried and crumbled vegan sausage. These provides the salt and spice - what the dish needs.There is only one problem with the ingredients . The potatoes have to be cooked a good half hour before they're tender. This can lead to some of the sausage bits drying out and the onions slices getting seriously burning. The next time I make this I'm going to par boil the potatoes first and then smash them for a quicker fry.
The end result was pretty tasty .I combined the air fried sheet pan mix with sauteed zucchini coins. It was a good combination. epsecially when I added the sauce. This was a highly spiced peppery sauce that worked well with the potatoes. It 's going to make an excellent lunch tomorrow too.
Can you do a sheet pan dinner in an air fryer? Yes it cna be done. You'll still get the same great flavor from favorite veggies and proteins.
