Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 14 oz smoked sausage (sliced into ½-inch rounds)
- 1½ pounds baby potatoes (halved or quartered)
- 1 small onion (sliced)
- 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
- 1 green bell pepper (sliced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced smoked sausage and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the potatoes and cook for about 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and brown. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook for another 5–6 minutes until vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Return the sausage to the skillet and cook everything together for another 3–5 minutes, until heated through and flavors are combined.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- For faster cooking, parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes before adding them to the skillet.
- You can also use turkey sausage or kielbasa for a lighter option.
- Leftovers reheat well and make a great next-day lunch.
