Instructions

1. Prep: Heat oven to 425°F. Peel and cut 1 lb butternut squash into 1-inch cubes (about 3–4 cups). Slice 1 medium onion. Dice 2 Roma tomatoes (about 3/4 lb).
2. Roast the veg: Toss the cubed squash and sliced onion with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and black pepper. Spread on a sheet pan and roast at 425°F until browned and tender, 20–25 minutes, tossing once halfway.
3. Brown the sausage: While veg roasts, heat a large skillet on medium-high. Add 1 lb sweet Italian sausage (casings removed, or sliced if it’s link-style). Cook, breaking into chunks, until nicely browned and cooked through, 8–10 minutes. Transfer sausage to a plate.
4. Build the tomato-garlic pan sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tbsp diced garlic and a pinch of red pepper flakes; cook 30 seconds. Add the diced tomatoes plus 1/2 tsp salt and cook until juicy and slightly broken down, 4–6 minutes.
5. Finish the sauce: Add 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1 tsp chopped rosemary (optional). Simmer 2–3 minutes to lightly thicken. Taste and adjust salt/pepper.
6. Combine: Add the browned sausage back to the skillet. Fold in the roasted squash and onions. Warm together 1–2 minutes, then serve hot (great as-is, or over rice/pasta if you have it).
