Ingredients

1 pound fresh kielbasa links *
1.5 pounds brussels sprouts trimmed and cut in half
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
salt and pepper
horseradish sauce **for serving I like Wobels brand

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375. Place the kielbasa in a baking dish and add water to the dish until it comes up almost halfway on the sausage. Place a lid on it or cover tightly with foil. Place in the oven and set the timer for 1 hour. Prep your brussels sprouts by cutting them in half and removing any brown or yellow leaves.
In a large bowl mix the brussels sprouts, oil, crushed red pepper, salt, and pepper. Spread them out evenly on a baking sheet. You will put these in the oven after the kielbasa has cooked for the first hour.
When the hour is up, take the kielbasa from the oven and remove the lid, and dump out the water. Crank up the oven to 400 and put it back in for 30 minutes uncovered.
Place the Brussels in the oven with the kielbasa. Roast them for 35 to 45 minutes depending on how brown you like them. Halfway through baking shake the brussels sprouts pan to move them around a bit.
When the kielbasa is done remove it from the oven and cover it, let it rest while the brussels are finishing cooking. When the brussesls are done season with a little more salt and place them on a serving tray, top with the sausage and serve with bread and butter if desired.

Notes

[nutrition-label]* Fresh kielbasa is not the pink smoked kind you find with other precooked sausages. It is uncooked in the raw meat department by the rest of the uncooked sausages. Kroger in my area carries a brand called Stanley's which is good.
**I like to dip my sausage in the creamy horseradish sauce, others in my family like spicy prepared horseradish, mustard, or even ketchup. Use what you like.
