Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound smoked sausage Opt for chicken or turkey sausage for a lighter option.
  • 1 pound baby potatoes New potatoes or fingerlings are perfect as they’re wonderfully tender.
  • 2 cups fresh green beans Feel free to use frozen if you’re short on time.
  • 1 medium onion, sliced This adds a sweet depth to the dish.
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced Fresh garlic infuses the dish with robust flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil A splash of olive oil provides essential fats and enhances the dish's taste.
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme Perfect for that aromatic touch; swap for rosemary or Italian seasoning as desired.
  • Salt and pepper to taste Essential for elevating the flavors.
Optional Garnish
  • Fresh parsley or chives Adding a burst of color and freshness at the end!

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Halve the baby potatoes for even cooking. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and half of the thyme.
  3. In a large, oven-safe skillet, add the sliced sausage over medium heat. Sauté until they begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the sliced onions, minced garlic, and green beans. Cook for another 3 minutes until the onions are softened.
  5. Add the seasoned potatoes into the skillet, mixing everything together gently.
Cooking
  1. Sprinkle the remaining thyme over the skillet and transfer it to the preheated oven.
  2. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, and the green beans are tender.
Serving
  1. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh herbs, and enjoy warm.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or microwave individual portions.
