Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pound (1 lb) sausage (Italian or smoked)
- 1.5 pounds (1.5 lbs) potatoes (Yukon gold or red)
- 1 onion, sliced
Seasonings:
- 2 tablespoons (2 tbsp) olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (1 tsp) garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon (1 tsp) paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Arrange oven rack in the middle position and heat to 400F (200C) for optimal roasting.
- Slice sausages and potatoes into uniform, bite-sized chunks to ensure even cooking and consistent texture.
- Combine all ingredients in a spacious mixing bowl, thoroughly coating each component with seasonings and oil for maximum flavor infusion.
- Transfer the seasoned mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet, carefully spreading ingredients into a single, uncrowded layer to promote crispy edges and thorough caramelization.
- Roast the dish for 25-30 minutes, using tongs to rotate ingredients midway through cooking to guarantee uniform browning and prevent sticking.
- Check potato tenderness and sausage internal temperature to confirm complete cooking; potatoes should be easily pierced with a fork and sausage should reach 160F internally.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 3-5 minutes to allow flavors to settle and enhance overall taste profile.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish for a vibrant garnish and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- Use high-quality sausage for richer flavor, like Italian or smoked varieties that add depth to the dish.
- Cut potatoes and sausage into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the meal.
- Opt for waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes, which hold their shape better during roasting and provide a creamy interior.
- Adjust seasoning by experimenting with herbs like rosemary or thyme to personalize the flavor profile and make the dish more aromatic.
