Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 sausages (Italian or smoked)
- 4 large potatoes, cubed
Seasoning and Aromatics:
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon (1 tsp) paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons (2 tbsp) olive oil
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare a spacious baking sheet and warm the oven to a robust 400°F, creating an ideal roasting environment for the upcoming culinary adventure.
- Dice potatoes into uniform, bite-sized cubes to ensure consistent cooking and crispy exterior, then generously coat with fragrant olive oil and a robust blend of spices including zesty paprika, ground black pepper, and sea salt.
- Arrange potato pieces in a single layer across the baking sheet, allowing each chunk ample space to caramelize and develop a golden, crisp exterior without steaming.
- Roast the potatoes initially for approximately 20 minutes, allowing them to transform into a crunchy, golden-edged delicacy with a tender interior.
- Remove the partially roasted potatoes and introduce sliced sausages and thinly chopped onions, distributing them evenly across the pan to maximize flavor integration and even cooking.
- Return the enhanced pan to the oven, continuing the roasting process for an additional 20-25 minutes until sausages reach a perfectly cooked state and potatoes achieve a deep, appetizing golden-brown complexion.
- Once removed from the oven, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish, adding a vibrant touch of color and a subtle herbal freshness that elevates the entire presentation.
- Serve immediately while the sausages and potatoes remain piping hot, guaranteeing a delectable dining experience with maximum flavor and textural appeal.
Notes
- Choose waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold for the best texture and even roasting.
- Cut sausages and potatoes into uniform sizes to ensure consistent cooking and prevent burning.
- For a spicier version, swap paprika with cayenne pepper or add red pepper flakes for extra kick.
- Transform this dish into a gluten-free meal by selecting certified gluten-free sausages and checking seasoning ingredients.
