Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 pound Smoked sausage
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch pieces. Set aside.
Chop the yellow onion and mince the garlic.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown and become slightly crispy.
Add the chopped onion and butter to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft.
Stir in the minced garlic, sliced smoked sausage, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is lightly browned.
Remove the skillet from heat and evenly sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the potato and sausage mixture.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
