OVEN SAUSAGE AND POTATOES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (f). * or grill
• Fine dice the onion and carrot and set aside. You may use a food processor for this if you want to.
• Cut sausage about 1/2 in. - 3/4 inch slices . Set aside.
• Cut potatoes into 1- 1 1/2 inch cubes. Set aside. (sometimes I will cut the potatoes while I'm browning the sausage)
• Heat large pot. Add olive oil then brown sausage. Remove from pot with a slotted spoon and set aside. You want to leave as much oil as possible in the pot.
• Add the diced carrot and onion to the pot and cook for just a minute.
• Now add back the sausage and add potatoes, along with the garlic powder, celery seed, parsley and salt and pepper. Give it a good mix then add the flour and stir to coat everything.
• Add chicken stock and stir well remembering to scrape the bottom to loosen the yummy bits. Spray a 9x13 in. baking dish . Pour mixture into the pan,cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes to an hour or till potatoes are tender. Let sit for 5 minutes so the liquid will thicken before serving.
• * You can skip the oven all together and put it on the grill or smoker. Keep it over indirect heat. Check it and give it a stir every so often.... Very good !

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook sausage links until browned and oil begins to render, about 3 minutes per side. While sausages are cooking, pierce them lightly here and there with the tip of a sharp knife so some fats and juices are released. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• When sausages are cool enough to handle, cut them into serving pieces, about 2-inch slices. Transfer back to pan along with any accumulated juices from the cutting board.
• Cut two slashes down to the bone on the skin side of each chicken thigh.
• Depending on the size of the peppers, halve or quarter them and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the sliced red and yellow onions and potato chunks. Add chicken thighs and sausage pieces with pan juices.
• Season with kosher salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs. Drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• Mix with your hands until all ingredients are coated in oil, 3 or 4 minutes. Transfer to large, heavy-duty roasting pan. Evenly space the chicken thighs skin side up. Position potatoes near the top.
• Place in preheated oven until chicken is cooked through and everything is caramelized, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with chopped fresh Italian parsley, if desired.
