Ingredients

▢ 1 pound baby gold potatoes
▢ 14 oz smoked sausage or kielbasa sliced into ½ inch rounds
▢ 1 red bell pepper sliced
▢ 1 orange bell pepper sliced
▢ 1 yellow onion sliced
▢ 2 Tablespoons butter divided
▢ 2 cloves garlic minced
▢ 1 teaspoon salt
▢ 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Poke potatoes with a fork on each side. Wrap them in a damp paper towel and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave for about 2 minutes on each side until tender. Once cooled, quarter the potatoes and set aside.
Melt one tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add sausage rounds and cook for 5 minutes until browned on all sides. Transfer sausage to a plate and set aside.
Add the remaining butter, quartered potatoes, onions, and peppers to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions and peppers soften. Add garlic in the last minute of cooking.
Return sausage and its juices to the skillet. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring, to reheat the sausage and combine flavors.

Notes

Use skinless sausage if you prefer a smoother texture.
Cooking over high heat helps with caramelization but requires close monitoring to prevent burning.
Serve with mustard or hot sauce for added flavor.
