🧾 Ingredients

(Serves 4)

  • 1 lb baby potatoes – halved or quartered (depending on size)
  • 8 oz green beans – washed and trimmed
  • 1 small yellow onion – cut into wedges or slices (about 1 cup)
  • 1 lb pre-cooked andouille sausage or kielbasa – sliced into 1-inch diagonal pieces
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend (oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary)
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper

Optional add-ons:

  • Sprinkle of red pepper flakes for heat
  • Grated Parmesan cheese before serving
  • Fresh parsley or thyme for garnish

🔥 Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
    🔥 High heat = crispy potatoes and caramelized edges.

2. Prep the Pan

  • Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil (for easy cleanup).
  • Spread the potatoes and onions evenly across the pan.
  • Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with half the salt, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and pepper.
  • Toss well to coat — use your hands or a spatula.

3. Roast the Potatoes First

  • Place the pan in the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
    Why? Potatoes take longer to cook — this head start ensures they’re tender and golden.

4. Add the Sausage & Green Beans

  • After 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven.
  • Push the potatoes and onions to one side.
  • Add the sliced sausage and green beans to the pan.
  • Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with the rest of the seasonings.
  • Toss everything gently to distribute the oil and spices.

5. Finish Roasting

  • Return the pan to the oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
  • Cook until:
    • Potatoes are fork-tender and crispy on the edges
    • Green beans are bright green and slightly blistered
    • Sausage is browned and heated through

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

  • Serve hot, straight from the pan.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
  • Pair with:
    • A crisp green salad
    • Crusty bread
    • A dollop of Dijon mustard or horseradish sauce (especially with kielbasa)

Why This Recipe Works

  • One pan, no mess – Minimal cleanup, maximum flavor
  • No pre-boiling – Potatoes roast perfectly from raw
  • Balanced meal – Protein, carbs, and veggies in one
  • Customizable – Swap sausage, veggies, or spices to taste

🔄 Easy Variations

  • Vegetarian? Swap sausage for smoked tofu or chickpeas
  • Spicier kick? Use hot andouille or add cayenne
  • Different veggies? Try bell peppers, zucchini, or broccoli
  • Herb boost? Add fresh rosemary or thyme before roasting

🕒 Storage & Reheating

  • Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days
  • Reheat: In the oven at 375°F for 10–15 mins (best for texture), or microwave for 2–3 mins
  • Freezer: Not recommended — green beans can become mushy when thawed
