👨🍳 How to Make It
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet or casserole dish with parchment or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chopped potatoes, onion, bell pepper, and sausage slices with olive oil and all seasonings. Make sure everything is evenly coated.
Step 3: Bake It
Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet or dish. Bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender, and the sausage edges are crispy.
Step 4: Optional Final Touch
Sprinkle with shredded cheese in the last 5 minutes of baking if you want a melty topping. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
🍴 Tips and Variations
Make it spicy: Use hot smoked sausage or add red pepper flakes.
Add more veggies: Toss in zucchini, mushrooms, or cherry tomatoes.
Switch the potatoes: Sweet potatoes or even cauliflower florets are great alternatives.
One-pan cleanup: Use a disposable foil pan or line your sheet tray with parchment for easy cleanup.
