Ingredients

• 1 lb smoked sausage
• 1 lb green beans
• 1.5 lb baby red potatoes
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 3 cloves garlic cloves
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 tsp smoked paprika

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Set aside.

Step 2

Wash the baby red potatoes and cut them into bite-sized quarters.

Step 3

Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch rounds.

Step 4

Dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 5

Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the sliced smoked sausage to the skillet and cook until they are browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the sausage from the pan and set them aside.

Step 7

Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 8

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 9

Add the baby red potatoes to the skillet along with the chicken broth. Season with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Stir to combine.

Step 10

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes begin to soften.

Step 11

Add the green beans to the skillet and stir to combine. Return the browned sausage to the skillet as well.

Step 12

Cover the skillet again and cook for another 10-12 minutes, or until the green beans are tender and the potatoes are fully cooked through.

Step 13

Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve hot and enjoy!
