Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked sausage, sliced
  • 1.5 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, washed and cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes and Variations

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne (for spice)
  • Shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese (for topping)
  • Herbs such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano (for added aroma)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure crispy, caramelized edges. Wash and chop the Yukon gold potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Slice the smoked sausage, red and yellow bell peppers, and red onion evenly to promote consistent cooking.
  2. Season the Potatoes and Vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, bell peppers, and red onion with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until all pieces are thoroughly coated for maximum roasted flavor.
  3. Arrange Everything on a Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes and vegetables in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Nestle the sliced smoked sausage among the potatoes so flavors meld and the sausage crisps nicely.
  4. Roast in the Oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25–30 minutes. About halfway through the roast, gently toss the ingredients to ensure even cooking and browning. The potatoes should turn golden and tender, and sausage should have slight caramelized edges.
  5. Finish and Serve: Once roasted, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top to brighten the dish. Serve hot and enjoy a smoky, savory meal with delicious texture and vibrant colors.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes evenly to ensure uniform cooking and prevent some pieces from being underdone.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; leaving space helps ingredients roast and crisp instead of steaming.
  • Use parchment paper on the baking sheet for easier cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • Flip or toss ingredients halfway through cooking for even caramelization and texture.
  • Choose smoked sausage for authentic smoky flavor that elevates the dish.
