A whole onion, thinly sliced for caramelizing

Garlic cloves, minced finely (2 cloves)
04 -
Red potatoes, chopped into bite-sized cubes (2 pounds)

→ Seasonings & Oil
06 -
Dried thyme, fragrant and earthy (1 teaspoon)
07 -
Sea salt to taste (1 teaspoon)
08 -
Paprika for a rich flavor (1 teaspoon)
09 -
Fresh parsley leaves for adding a pop of green at the end
10 -
Fresh rosemary, chopped roughly for garnish (1 tablespoon, or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried)
11 -
Cooking avocado oil (1/4 cup)
12 -
Ground black pepper, freshly cracked for a touch of heat (1/4 teaspoon)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Heat half of the avocado oil until it's hot in a big pan. Place the sausage slices in and cook them for about 4-5 minutes, letting them get a nice golden and crispy look. Once done, pull them out and leave them aside.
02 -
Add the rest of the oil to the pan and toss in the potato chunks. Stir them every now and then while cooking them for 5-7 minutes. You’re aiming for that delicious outer crust to form.
03 -
Add the sliced onions and peppers. Stir them around occasionally and let them hang out in the pan for about 5-7 minutes so they all cook evenly.
04 -
Toss in the garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good mix so the flavors spread around. Finally, put the sausage back into the skillet, mixing it all together.
05 -
Lower the heat and let the whole dish cook for another 5-7 minutes. The potatoes should be tender with crispy edges! Sprinkle rosemary on top and stir gently to release the scent. Garnish with parsley if you'd like a dash of fresh color.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
A simple one-pan meal ready in just 30 minutes, perfect when you're short on time during the week.
