One of my favorite weeknight dinners is this roasted sausage with celery because it comes together in just 50 minutes and tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen. The beauty of this dish is how simple it really is: you're just tossing Italian sausages with aromatic vegetables, fresh herbs, and a splash of white wine, then letting the oven do the work. Plus, celery is packed with antioxidants and helps reduce inflammation, so you're getting something genuinely good for you with every bite. It's the kind of meal that fills your home with amazing smells and requires minimal effort on your part.

Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat sausages dry with paper towels to help them brown properly.
Tip: Dry sausages develop a better crust and brown more evenly during roasting.
- 2
In a large roasting pan, toss celery pieces and onion wedges with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer.
Tip: Arrange vegetables so they have space to roast rather than steam.
- 3
Nestle sausages among the vegetables. Drizzle remaining olive oil over sausages. Place in preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until sausages are golden brown and cooked through.
Tip: Sausages are done when their internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- 4
While sausages roast, prepare the herb butter by mixing softened butter with minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl.
Tip: Let the herb butter warm to room temperature for easier mixing.
- 5
Remove pan from oven. Pour wine and broth around the sausages and vegetables, avoiding pouring directly on them. Dot herb butter over the sausages.
Tip: The liquid will deglaze the pan and create a flavorful sauce.
- 6
Return to oven for 3-4 minutes until butter melts and sauce comes together, then remove from heat.
Tip: Watch carefully so the sauce doesn't reduce too much.
- 7
Transfer sausages, celery, and onions to a serving platter. Stir lemon juice into the pan juices and pour over the dish.
Tip: The lemon juice brightens the savory flavors and adds freshness to the sauce.

Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve hot with crusty bread to soak up the pan sauce.
