🥔🍳 Roasted Potatoes and Sausage Skillet
🍽️ Serves: 4
⏱️ Time: 10 min prep + 30–35 min cooking
🛒 Ingredients:
-
1.5 lbs baby potatoes or Yukon gold, halved or quartered
-
1 lb sausage links (Italian, smoked, or your favorite), sliced or left whole
-
3 tbsp olive oil
-
4 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tsp paprika
-
1 tsp dried rosemary or thyme (or fresh herbs if you have)
-
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
-
Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Preheat oven:
Set oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare potatoes:
In a large bowl, toss potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
3. Cook sausage:
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet (cast iron is perfect) over medium heat.
Add sausage and cook until browned on all sides (about 5-7 minutes). Remove sausage and set aside.
4. Cook potatoes:
In the same skillet, add potatoes cut-side down. Let them cook undisturbed for 5 minutes to start crisping.
5. Add garlic:
Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring gently.
6. Combine and roast:
Return sausage to the skillet, nestling it among the potatoes.
Transfer skillet to the preheated oven.
7. Roast:
Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring potatoes halfway through, until potatoes are golden and tender, and sausage is cooked through.
8. Serve:
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve hot.
💡 Tips:
-
Use an oven-safe skillet or transfer everything to a baking dish after browning.
-
Swap herbs as you like — sage or oregano work well.
-
Add bell peppers or onions for extra flavor and color.
