Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz smoked sausage
- 1.5 lb baby potatoes (red or gold)
- 1 lb fresh green beans
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Set aside.
Scrub the baby potatoes and cut them into halves or quarters if they are large. Set aside.
Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.
Peel and dice the yellow onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes, until browned and slightly crispy. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the baby potatoes, chicken broth, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Cover the skillet with a lid, reduce the heat to medium, and let the potatoes cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are starting to soften.
Add the green beans to the skillet, stirring them into the mixture. Cover again and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until the green beans are tender and the potatoes are fully cooked.
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet. Stir in the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the vegetables and sausage.
Taste the dish and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve hot as a one-pot meal, and enjoy!
