Smoked Sausage and Potato Bake!!!

Step 4: Arrange on a Baking Sheet

• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
• Spread the potato and sausage mixture in a single layer, making sure there’s space between pieces. Crowding will steam the potatoes instead of roasting them.

Step 5: Bake Until Golden

• Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
• Bake for 25–30 minutes, then use a spatula to flip the potatoes and sausage for even browning.
• Continue baking for another 15–20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and golden brown and the sausage is slightly crispy on the edges.

Step 6: Serve and Garnish

• Once cooked, remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
• Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for color and a touch of freshness.
• Serve hot, either on its own or with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or salad.

Tips for Perfect Smoked Sausage and Potato Bake

1. Choose the right potatoes – Waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold hold their shape well, while russets get fluffier.
2. Don’t skip flipping – Turning the potatoes halfway ensures they roast evenly and develop a golden crust.
3. Add extra veggies – Mushrooms, zucchini, or carrots can be added for a more colorful and nutritious bake.
4. Leftovers – Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for the best texture.
