👨🍳 How to Make Smoked Sausage and Potato Bake
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or sheet pan.
- Prep the ingredients: In a large bowl, toss the sliced potatoes, sausage, and optional vegetables with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread everything out in an even layer so the potatoes can crisp up nicely.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and tender, and the sausage is slightly caramelized.
- Optional finish: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top during the last 5 minutes of baking for a cheesy twist.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve hot.
🔄 Variations
- Veg it up: Add zucchini, mushrooms, or cherry tomatoes.
- Spicy version: Use hot sausage and add red pepper flakes.
- Low-carb option: Swap potatoes for cauliflower florets.
- Add a sauce: Drizzle with honey mustard, ranch, or BBQ sauce for extra flavor.
