Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 oz smoked sausage (kielbasa or andouille), sliced into rounds
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced (about 3 cups)
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced (for topping)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano (or Italian seasoning)
  • 1/4–1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
  • 2–3 tbsp water or broth (as needed to steam sweet potatoes)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced sausage and cook 3–4 minutes until browned. Remove to a plate.
  2. Add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Add sweet potatoes, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir well. Cook 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If needed, add 2–3 tbsp water or broth and cover for 2–3 minutes.
  3. Add sliced onion and chopped bell peppers. Cook 5–7 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Return sausage to the skillet and toss everything together for 1–2 minutes until hot.
  5. Top with sliced green onions and parsley. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Adjust red pepper flakes for desired spiciness.
