Sausage and Potato Skillet
This savory and delicious sausage recipe can be made for breakfast or dinner. It's quick and easy and uses nitrate-free sausage, red potatoes and Gouda cheese. Gluten free.
Ingredients
- 12 oz. Oscar Mayer select hardwood smoked uncured beef sausage, sliced (preservative and nitrate free)
- 1 to 1 1/2 lbs. red potatoes, diced
- 1/2 orange bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/3 cup diced onion
- 1 large leek, quartered and sliced
- 1 tbsp. parsley (dried)
- 1/2 tsp. pink Himalayan sea salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1/2 tsp. thyme (dried)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded gouda cheese (or substitute sharp cheddar cheese)
- 1 cup Fiesta blend cheese (or substitute sharp cheddar cheese)
- 2-3 tbsp. avocado oil (olive oil or coconut oil can be substituted)
- fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Melt avocado oil in 12” skillet over low to medium heat.
- Add potatoes and sauté about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Add bell peppers, onions and leek.
- Cover with lid and continue to stir and sauté about 10 minutes longer.
- Add sausage and seasonings and cook until veggies are fork tender and meat is heated through.
- Sprinkle cheese over top and cook until cheese melts.
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
NOTE: The original recipe placed the ingredients in a casserole dish after sautéing, then covered with cheese and baked at 350° for about 10 minutes until the cheese melted. Either way will work.
NOTE: I used Gouda and Fiesta blend cheeses because that’s what I had on hand. This works equally well with sharp cheddar cheese. If you want a little extra bite to it, I would use Pepper Jack cheese.
