Ingredients

For the Dish:

• 4 sausages (pork, chicken, or your choice)
• 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes, halved
• 1 lb (450g) button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp paprika
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional:

• 1 tbsp butter (for extra richness)
• Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

1. Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them in half. Leave the skins on for extra flavor and texture.
2. Clean the mushrooms and slice them into medium-sized pieces.
3. Mince the garlic and set it aside.

Step 2: Cook the Potatoes

1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the halved potatoes, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and cook for about 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Sausages

1. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and place the sausages. Cook over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove the sausages and set aside with the potatoes.

Step 4: Sauté the Mushrooms

1. Add the mushrooms to the skillet, along with the minced garlic, dried thyme, and butter (if using). Sauté for 6–8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are golden and tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5: Combine and Serve

1. Return the cooked sausages and potatoes to the skillet with the mushrooms. Toss everything together gently to combine and heat through for 2–3 minutes.
2. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve the dish straight from the skillet with lemon wedges on the side for a zesty kick.
• Pair it with a simple green salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.

Pro Tips

• For extra flavor, try adding a splash of white wine or chicken broth while sautéing the mushrooms.
• Use high-quality sausages for the best results; herbed or garlic sausages work particularly well with this dish.
• If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red chili flakes during cooking.
