Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Dice the yellow onion, mince the garlic, and dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the minced garlic and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the sweet corn kernels and diced zucchini. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender and the corn is slightly caramelized.
Return the browned sausage to the skillet. Stir in the smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Cook for 2-3 more minutes to let the flavors meld together. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Sausage Corn Skillet!
