Roasted potatoes and kielbasa make for an amazing one-pan meal with just a few seasonings.
Potatoes and Kielbasa
Skillet, sheet pan, or one-pot dinners combine the vegetables, protein, and seasonings into a simple meal that can usually be pulled together with very little hands-on time required.
Roasting potatoes and kielbasa or smoked sausage are a quick and easy sheet pan dinner option. Tossing it all together and roasting them at the same time creates a delicious melding of flavors.
For pan-roasted potatoes and smoked sausage, any kind of potato will work. However, I often use a slightly firmer russet, simply because I like the way it crisps and has a soft yet slightly firm bite to it.
That said, any potato at all will work here and I typically use whichever variety happens to be in my pantry when I’m making dinner.
Give the potatoes a good scrub and feel free to skip peeling them, just cut them into 1-inch cubes. Toss the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle generously with the seasonings. Roast them for 20 minutes and then pull them from the oven.
Stir the potatoes and add the sliced kielbasa to the baking sheet. Roast an additional 20 minutes, until the sausage has crispy edges and the potatoes are fork-tender.
The leftovers, if you actually manage to have any, make for a delicious breakfast hash with a soft fried egg on top. I usually toss them in a skillet with other leftover vegetables and heat through for a filling and tasty meal.

Knew the time sounded way too long. I should watched it but thought whoever came up with this would know how long to cook it. Got busy heard the timer go off after 20 minutes after adding Keisha. The kielbasa has burnt to a chrisp and the potatoes were dried out and hard as rocks. Luckily it was early enough to order a pizza. Never again. Also, the garlic used was way too much also.
Mary says
Oh, that is a bummer. I can appreciate your frustration with a recipe that didn’t turn out as desired. How small were the potatoes and kielbasa cut? If both of those ingredients were cut into fairly large 1-inch pieces, they should not have been burnt or dried out at all. I’ve made this recipe exactly as written many times, as have many other readers. Without being in your kitchen with you, it’s hard to guess what might have gone wrong. My best guess is that things were cut smaller and in that case, the baking time would’ve needed to be reduced.
