Garlic Skillet Potatoes with Sausages
Description
Garlic Skillet Potatoes with Sausages uses red-skinned potatoes cooked whole in a hot cast iron pan with olive oil and covered to soften, releasing their starch and developing a browned crust when cooked through. Smoked chicken sausage slices add a smoked, savory component, while sliced onions and red and yellow bell peppers contribute sweetness and color. Garlic and crushed red chili flakes season the dish with aromatic depth and gentle heat. The recipe allows for cooking the potatoes directly without parboiling, though parboiling can reduce the cooking time. Finishing the dish with a splash of chicken stock helps to deglaze the pan and meld flavors. Garnishing with fresh parsley adds a fresh herbal note. This combination makes for a hearty, flavorful one-pan meal that balances textures between tender potatoes and crisped sausages and peppers.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds potato red skin variety
- 1 pound smoked sausage I used smoked chicken sausage, breakfast variety
- 5 tablespoons olive oil you can use olive oil and butter
- 2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 onion sliced, large
- ½ red bell pepper cut lengthwise
- ½ yellow bell pepper cut lengthwise
- 1 ½ teaspoon red chili flakes
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- ¼ cup chicken stock
Garnish
- parsley
Instructions
- BEFORE YOU START: While making roast potatoes I usually parboil potatoes either in a large pan immersed in water or microwave at high power 1200w for 8 minutes until it's fork-tender. In today's recipe, I used raw potatoes and cooked them directly on the skillet by covering them with a lid and cooking for 10 to 12 minutes stirring regularly. You can parboil potatoes first and then brown them in a cast iron skillet. If using parboiled potatoes, the time to brown potatoes will reduce.
- Chop potatoes evenly. Either lengthwise into thin wedges or sliced round. Slice sausages lengthwise into half.Slice onions thin and red bell peppers lengthwise.
- Heat up cast iron pan. When cast iron skillet turn hot, add olive oil.
- Add sliced potatoes to hot cast iron pan and wait for 5 to 8 minutes before you turn potatoes.
- Season potato with salt and pepper to taste. Stirring occasionally cook potatoes until cooked through.
- Remove potatoes onto a plate.
- Add sausages to the same skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add minced garlic, sliced onions, bell peppers to the pan. Saute and cook for few minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Add red chili flakes.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add chicken stock and continue to cook.
- Add back cooked potatoes(add few tablespoons of more chicken stock if needed to cook potatoes through). Let everything cook and come together for 5-8 minutes.
- Turn off flames. Garnish with parsley.
- Serve!
