Simple, hearty, and cozy—baked potatoes and sausage is a total win 🥔🌭
Here’s an easy one-pan oven version with crispy edges and tons of flavor.
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
- 1 lb smoked sausage or kielbasa, sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Optional: 1 bell pepper or onion, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven
Set oven to 400°F (205°C). - Season
In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. - Bake potatoes first
Spread potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake 25 minutes, flipping once. - Add sausage
Add sliced sausage (and peppers/onions if using).
Toss gently and return to oven for 20–25 minutes, until potatoes are tender and sausage is browned. - Serve
Serve hot with sour cream, shredded cheese, or mustard on the side.
Easy Variations
- Cheesy version: Sprinkle shredded cheddar over everything in the last 5 minutes.
- Garlic herb: Add fresh rosemary or thyme before baking.
- Spicy: Use andouille sausage or add red pepper flakes.
- Foil-packet version: Great for grilling or camping.
If you want, I can also give you a slow cooker version or a sheet-pan meal with honey mustard glaze—both are really good.
