It’s about time my beloved chicken sausage made it into a dinner recipe! I love chicken sausage – specially, Aidell’s Chicken Apple Sausage (we get the huge pack at Costco), and normally just eat it as a breakfast protein. BUT there have been many many days when I open the fridge or lunch or dinner when I am tired and either don’t see any other protein option, or just don’t want to take time to cook anything. This is when the pre-cooked chicken sausages save my life! So when thinking of a super easy “throw everything in a baking dish and cook it” kind of meal, adding sliced chicken sausage was a no brainer. There are lots of kinds of chicken sausage out there these days so you can really use any flavor you like, but the chicken apple is just my personal favorite!
I had shared this a few times but I used to think that Curry meant SPICY, so I never tried it and was kind of scared of it. Then one day I had some yellow curry something from a thai place and was forever changed. Now Yellow Curry powder is a staple in my pantry! I would use it all the time but unfortunately Matt still isn’t the biggest fan, so I save it for when he is at work! He did try this though and even admitted it was pretty good – which I will take all day. Okay now it’s your turn – make this recipe and tell me just how easy it is!!

Hi this looks delicious!! What kind and flavor of chicken sausage did you use? Thanks!!
I used chicken apple sausage!
Looks awesome! Can you use frozen cauliflower rice or do you suggest fresh?
You can use frozen!
Looks so yummy! My hubs doesn’t love curry either, so I was going to make it to have when he works late. Have you tried freezing it and re-heating?
I have not frozen and reheated this, just refrigerated for the week! Let me know if you try it though!
Kelsey. I think you are the Bee’s Knees and your recipes are off the chain. This was another delicious winner. Our family counts calories and eats abundantly thanks to vegetables. Your recipes fit the foodie bill! Keep up the great work, please!
That is great Dana!! 🙂
I’m with Dana, Kelsey! Absolutely delicious! Thank you!
I just loved this! I only had one bag of frozen cauliflower rice in my freezer (3cups) so I halved the recipe and it turned out perfect. Thanks, Kelsey, for another fantastic dish!
So glad!!
I haven’t tried this yet but have a question
Do I just bake it for 30? Or was I suppose to let it stand for 10 after the oven?
30 total, yes! Just remove the foil after 20 minutes!
Definitely making this week! It’s chilly out and this sounds like the perfect meal!
Awesome!!
Super simple and delicious! I used Indian curry powder instead of Thai, but it still turned out great!
Great substitution!
