Ohhhh yes 😍 That’s basically a hearty skillet meal—super flavorful, one-pan, and perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Here’s a simple recipe:
Skillet Fried Potatoes, Onions, Smoked Sausage & Green Beans
Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 4 medium potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or butter)
- 12 oz smoked sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 cups fresh or frozen green beans, trimmed (if frozen, thawed)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder or 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Optional: smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, or fresh herbs for extra flavor
Instructions
- Cook potatoes
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add diced potatoes, season with salt and pepper.
- Cover and cook 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are mostly tender.
- Add onions & sausage
- Add chopped onions and smoked sausage slices to the skillet.
- Cook 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and sausage is browned.
- Add green beans
- Stir in green beans and garlic (or garlic powder).
- Cook 5–7 more minutes until beans are tender but still bright green.
- Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or other seasonings.
- Serve
- Serve hot straight from the skillet. Great as-is or with ketchup, hot sauce, or a fried egg on top.
🔥 Tips & Variations
- Parboil potatoes for 5 minutes before frying to reduce cooking time and make them extra tender inside.
- Swap smoked sausage for kielbasa, Andouille, or chicken sausage.
- Add bell peppers or mushrooms for extra veggies.
- For a crispier finish, remove lid during the last few minutes to let potatoes brown nicely.
This one-pan skillet is basically comfort food heaven—all savory, smoky, and satisfying 😏
If you want, I can also give a casserole version that bakes everything together for an even easier cleanup.
