Roasted smoked sausage and potatoes brings together two simple ingredients that create something truly special. Each bite delivers golden, crispy potatoes and smoky sausage pieces, all infused with aromatic seasonings and roasted to perfection. It's like having a cozy winter cabin dinner any night of the week, all in one pan.

Last week, I served this on a chilly evening, and my friend who "doesn't do simple food" asked for seconds. The way the sausage flavors the potatoes while they roast creates something truly magical.

This recipe emerged from my love of simple, satisfying dinners. After experimenting with different potato varieties and sausage types, this version achieves that perfect balance of crispy and tender, smoky and savory.

Making it Your Own

Through countless sheet pans, I've learned that success lies in the details - the size of your cuts, the space between pieces, and most importantly, your patience in roasting. I particularly love how this recipe welcomes variations - sometimes I'll add bell peppers, other times I'll include carrots.

What You'll Need

→ For the Dish

01 4 medium golden or red potatoes, washed and cut into bite-sized chunks
02 1 lb (450g) smoked halal sausage, sliced into ½-inch rounds
03 1 large yellow onion, cut into wedges
04 3 tablespoons olive oil
05 1 teaspoon garlic powder
06 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
07 ½ teaspoon dried thyme (or rosemary)
08 Salt and black pepper, to taste
09 Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Let's Cook!

Step 01

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 02

Place the chopped potatoes, sausage slices, and onion wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle garlic powder, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper over the mixture. Toss until evenly coated.

Step 03

Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and golden and the sausage is slightly crisp.

Step 04

Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm.

Cook's Notes

  1. Add chopped bell peppers or carrots for extra crunch and flavor.
  2. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or on the stovetop for the best results.
  3. Swap smoked sausage with turkey sausage or chicken sausage for a lighter option.
  4. Adjust seasonings to your preference. Smoked paprika or Cajun seasoning can add an extra kick of flavor.

Kitchen Tools Needed

  • Parchment paper
