Can this recipe be cooked outdoors or in an oven?
Yes, this versatile recipe can be cooked both outdoors on a grill and indoors in an oven. For outdoor cooking, preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 450°F (232°C). Prepare the foil packets as instructed, place them on the grill, and cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking. If you prefer to cook indoors, preheat your oven to the same temperature, place the foil packets on a baking sheet, and bake for 30-40 minutes. Whether grilled or baked, this recipe delivers delicious results.
How to customize this recipe?
Customizing this recipe is easy and allows you to tailor it to your taste preferences. You can swap the chicken sausage for other Keto-friendly sausages like turkey or pork. Feel free to add or substitute vegetables such as broccoli, cherry tomatoes, or asparagus. If you like more heat, increase the amount of red pepper flakes or add a dash of hot sauce. Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme can also be added to enhance the flavor. The key is to maintain the balance of ingredients while exploring different combinations that suit your palate.
How to store leftovers?
Storing leftovers is simple and keeps this dish ready for a quick meal later. After cooking, let the foil packets cool slightly before transferring the contents to an airtight container. Store the leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. When ready to eat, you can reheat the mixture in the microwave or on the stovetop until warmed through. For best results, avoid reheating the foil packets directly as the foil may deteriorate. Garnish with fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese before serving to revive the dish’s flavors.

Step 1
Preheat the grill pan on medium-high heat. Prepare 3 large sheets of heavy-duty foil, and spray with cooking spray. Coin the sausage into 1/2-inch thick slices. Chop zucchini into 1-inch pieces. Finely dice the onion and mushrooms. Remove the stem and seeds on the bell pepper and thinly slice lengthwise.Step 2
Add the sausage and veggies to a large bowl. Toss with the olive oil and garlic flakes, dried basil, dried oregano, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes. Gently toss until well combined.Step 3
Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared sheets of foil. Seal the foil packs tightly so no air escapes, but there is still room for steam to circulate. Do not double up foil (only one sheet of foil per pack).Step 4
Grill for 25-30 minutes or until veggies have reached desired tenderness (flip the foil packs at the halfway point and check for doneness to ensure your grill is hot enough).Step 5
Carefully open the foil pack, expecting steam to be released. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy while nice and warm!
