Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon Olive oil
-
14-16 ounces smoked sausage, sliced
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
1 onion, thinly sliced
-
3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed through garlic press
-
Salt, to taste
-
¾ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
-
1 ½ teaspoons paprika
-
1.5 to 2 pounds medium-size red skin potatoes, peeled and sliced into ½” thick circles (about 2 ¾ lbs)
-
1 ½ cup chicken stock
-
⅓ cup parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large deep skillet. Once the oil is hot, add in the smoked sausage medallions, and brown them for a few minutes until they become a deep brown color. Remove the sausage from the pan and set aside.
- To the same pan add in the butter, and allow it to melt; add in the onions, and caramelize those in the butter and sausage drippings, about 5-7 minutes. Now add in the garlic, a couple of pinches of salt, the freshly cracked black pepper and the paprika, and stir to combine with the onions. Saute for two more minutes.
- Next, add in the sliced potatoes, chicken stock and parsley, and stir to combine. Cover the pan with a lid that and simmer on medium-low heat for about 15 minutes. Then, uncover and allow the potatoes to continue to simmer for 10 more minutes, or until they are tender and the sauce a bit thickened, stirring once or twice during that time.
- Finally add the smoked sausage back into the pan, and add a couple more pinches of salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve hot
