Ingredients:
- 1 lb smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
- 1 lb potatoes (purple, Yukon gold, or any variety you prefer), washed and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 Tablespoons oil (vegetable, olive, or your preferred cooking oil)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1-2 teaspoons Slap Ya Mama seasoning (or your favorite Cajun seasoning)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Brown the Sausage:
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced smoked sausage and cook until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the sausage from the pan and set aside.
- Cook the Potatoes and Green Beans:
- In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of oil and let it heat up.
- Add the potatoes and green beans to the skillet. Sprinkle with onion powder, garlic powder, Slap Ya Mama seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the vegetables evenly with the oil and seasonings.
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- Cook the potatoes and green beans on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until you hear them sizzling and see them starting to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Combine and Simmer:
- Return the browned sausage to the skillet, mixing it with the potatoes and green beans.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let everything simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the green beans are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
- Serve:
- Once everything is cooked through, give it a final stir and taste for seasoning. Adjust with more salt, pepper, or seasoning if needed.
- Serve hot as a complete meal or with a side of crusty bread.
Tips:
- Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for extra flavor and texture.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of Slap Ya Mama seasoning to suit your spice preference.
- Leftovers: This dish reheats well and makes for a great lunch the next day.
