Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 14 ounces smoked sausage
• 1 pound baby red potatoes
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby red potatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the diced onion, sliced red bell pepper, sliced green bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 6

Add the baby red potatoes to the skillet, along with the dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the potatoes in the seasoning.

Step 7

Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Once the potatoes are cooked, return the browned sausage to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving and enjoy your Sausage Skillet Dinner!
