Potatoes and Green Beans with Sausage
Ingredients
For the Potatoes:
- 5-6 large Yukon Gold potatoes, diced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- ½ tsp Slap Ya Mama seasoning (or Cajun seasoning)
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
For the Green Beans:
- 1 lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed
- ¼ tsp Slap Ya Mama seasoning (or Cajun seasoning)
- ¼ tsp pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup water
For the Sausage:
- 12 oz smoked sausage, sliced into ¼-inch slices
- ¼ cup water
To prepare the potatoes, heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season with salt, pepper, and Slap Ya Mama spice after adding the diced potatoes. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring periodically, or until the potatoes are soft and golden brown. Cover the potatoes with the parmesan cheese and toss to coat them all. Put aside.
Regarding the green beans:
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the green beans, salt, pepper, and Slap Ya Mama seasoning. Coat the beans with the spice by tossing them, then cook for approximately five minutes, or until they are a bright green color. After adding the minced garlic, simmer for one more minute. Add ¼ cup of water, cover the pot, and steam the green beans until tender, about 2-3 minutes.
For the sausage, place the smoked sausage slices and ¼ cup of water in a large frying pan. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes over medium-high heat, or until the sausage is browned and most of the water has evaporated. Drain extra grease if necessary, then put aside.
Combining the Dish:
After the green beans are done, combine them with the browned sausage and sautéed potatoes. Make sure everything is heated through by gently stirring to mix all the ingredients. Warm up and dig in!
