Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced

1 lb smoked Polish sausage, sliced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Potatoes: Begin by peeling and dicing the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a bowl of water to prevent browning while you prepare the other ingredients.

    Sauté the Sausage: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced Polish sausage and cook until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

      Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

        Fry the Potatoes: Drain the diced potatoes from the water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Add the potatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine with the vegetables. Season with paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.

          Turn Up the Heat: Allow the potatoes to cook on medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning. If you want a crunchier texture, increase the heat to medium-high for the last 5 minutes of cooking.

            Combine and Finish: Once potatoes are cooked through and golden, return the browned sausage to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sausage is heated through.

              Serve and Garnish: Remove from heat, and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
