Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Oven mitts

Ingredients
  

  • Smoked sausage – 14 ounces, sliced
  • Baby potatoes – 1 ½ pounds, halved
  • Green beans – 1 pound, trimmed
  • Olive oil – 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic – 3 cloves, minced
  • Onion – 1 medium, chopped
  • Salt – 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper – ½ teaspoon
  • Paprika – 1 teaspoon
  • Chicken broth – ½ cup

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish so nothing sticks. This step helps the casserole cook evenly and makes cleanup much easier later.

Prep Vegetables

  • Wash and halve the baby potatoes into even pieces so they cook evenly. Trim the green beans and cut them if needed for easier eating and better texture.

Cook Sausage

  • Slice the smoked sausage into bite-sized rounds. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage until lightly browned and slightly crisp around the edges.

Add Aromatics

  • Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with sausage. Cook for about 3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened, stirring gently to avoid burning.

Combine Ingredients

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine potatoes, green beans, cooked sausage mixture, olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything well so the seasoning coats evenly.

Transfer to Dish

  • Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly so everything cooks at the same rate and every bite has a balanced mix of ingredients.

Add Liquid

  • Pour chicken broth over the mixture to keep everything moist while baking. Cover the dish tightly with foil to trap steam and help soften the potatoes perfectly.

Bake Covered

  • Bake covered in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. This allows the potatoes to become tender and absorb all the delicious flavors from the sausage and seasoning.

Bake Uncovered

  • Remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes until everything is slightly crispy and golden. This step adds texture and deepens the flavor.

Serve

  • Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for a few minutes. Serve warm and enjoy the rich, comforting flavors in every hearty bite.

Notes

  • Use smoked sausage for best flavor
  • Cut potatoes evenly for even cooking
  • Do not skip covering step
  • Serve warm for best texture
