  • Total Time: 35-40 minutes
  • Yield: 4-6 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
  • 2 pounds potatoes, diced (Russet or Yukon Gold)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease your baking sheet. Wash and dice the potatoes into even pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, ranch seasoning mix, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Add the sliced smoked sausage around the potatoes.
  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy. About 5 minutes before baking is complete, sprinkle shredded cheese over the dish and bake until melted and bubbly.
  4. Optional: Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Use uniform potato pieces for even cooking.
  • Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet for crispiness.
  • Add extra vegetables like bell peppers or onions for variety.
  • Sprinkle cheese during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
