Tasty Smoked Sausage and Potatoes Skillet (Print version)

Smoked sausage and crispy potatoes skillet with peppers and onions, a 30-minute one-pan dinner.

# Ingredients:

For the skillet

01 - 12 oz (340 g) smoked sausage (kielbasa or andouille), sliced into 1/2-inch coins
02 - 1.5 lb (680 g) Yukon gold potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
03 - 1 medium bell pepper, diced
04 - 1 medium yellow onion, diced
05 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
07 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
08 - 1/4 cup (60 ml) water or chicken broth
09 - Salt and black pepper to taste
10 - Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Wash and dice the potatoes into half-inch cubes so they cook evenly and fast. Leave the skin on for texture and less work.
02 - Slice the smoked sausage into thick coins and sear them in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until the edges char, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
03 - Add the onion and bell pepper to the rendered fat and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and paprika for the last 30 seconds.
04 - Add the diced potatoes, olive oil, and a splash of water or broth, then cover and steam for 8-10 minutes until just tender. Uncover and let the liquid evaporate.
05 - Return the sausage to the pan and raise the heat. Let everything sit undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to form a crust, then toss once and serve hot.

# Good to know:

01 - Serve hot straight from the skillet.
