Ingredients
  

1 pound smoked sausage (kielbasa or andouille), sliced into 1-inch pieces

1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved (or quartered if large)

1 bell pepper (any color), sliced

1 red onion, cut into wedges

4 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon dried thyme

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help achieve a perfect crispy finish.

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, sliced bell pepper, and red onion. Add the minced garlic for flavor.

      Seasoning: Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sausage. Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well coated. The seasoning should evenly cover the sausage and vegetables.

        Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the sausage and vegetable mixture evenly on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure that the pieces are not overcrowded to allow for proper roasting.

          Roasting Time: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes. Halfway through cooking, stir the mixture to ensure even roasting and browning.

            Check for Doneness: The dish is ready when the potatoes are golden brown and tender, and the sausage is crispy on the edges. If you like your sausage extra crispy, you can switch the oven to broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve with lemon wedges for an extra zing.
