Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons olive oil
4 sausages
1 pound baby potatoes, halved
2 pinches kosher salt
1 bell peppers, roughly chopped
1 large red onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Set a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. After it gets good and hot, add the olive oil, then the sausages. Brown all over-about 2 minutes per side-then remove to a waiting plate. We're not trying to cook them through, just sear 'em!
  • Add another tablespoon olive oil to the skillet, followed by the potatoes, cut side facing down. Season with a big pinch of salt. Cook these for 5 minutes until browned, then flip and cook another 5 minutes. Transfer these to the plate with the sausages.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil, then the peppers and onion. Season with a big pinch of salt. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until tender-about 10 minutes. Add the sausages and potatoes back to the skillet. Pour 1/3 cup water evenly over the top and cover the pan with a lid.
  • Cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the sausage is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, lifting the lid for the last few minutes. Taste and adjust the salt accordingly.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 Tbsp oil
6 oz fingerling potatoes halved
4 oz baby carrots
1/2 large red onion diced
4 clove garlic minced
1 pkg smoked sausage cut into rounds
1 Tbsp each minced thyme and rosemary
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Place oil in a large skillet. Add the potatoes and carrots. Season with some salt. Cook stirring occasionally about 10 minutes. Add the onion and garlic. Cook 5 more minutes.
  • 2. Add the sausage, rosemary and thyme. Cook 5 more minutes. Serve sprinkled with cheese.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality sausage: Opt for a sausage that is made with fresh, flavorful meat and spices. Look for sausages that have a good fat content, as this will help keep them moist and juicy during cooking.
  • Use a variety of potatoes: Different types of potatoes have different textures and flavors, so using a variety will add interest and complexity to your dish. For example, you could use a combination of Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausage and potatoes, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the food will steam instead of fry, and it will not be as flavorful.
  • Season generously: Sausage and potatoes are both fairly bland on their own, so it is important to season them generously with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to brighten up the flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Sausage and potatoes are best served hot out of the pan. They can be served as a main course or as a side dish.

Conclusion:

Sausage and potatoes is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of savory sausage, tender potatoes, and flavorful seasonings, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next meal. Whether you are cooking for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, sausage and potatoes is a dish that is sure to satisfy.
