italian sausage and potatoes
This is another one of those Italian peasant dishes that I so love. It's a family recipe which means there really is no recipe. But I took notes while making it tonight. Just three main ingredients so you really can't go wrong. You can have this as a main course with a salad and Italian bread or as a side dish. You can also add peas before placing it in the oven.

How To Make italian sausage and potatoes
-
Step 1Brown sausage in a very large fry pan breaking it up with a wooden spoon until it is no longer pink.
-
Step 2While the sausage is frying, cut the potatoes into quarters length-wise and then slice them into 1/4-inch thick slices.
-
Step 3Place the cut-up potatoes into the frying pan and cook on medium/high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil if necessary. Keep an eye on the potatoes and toss them every few minutes so they don't burn. You want them to be golden brown.
-
Step 4When the potatoes are halfway cooked (maybe about 10 minutes) add the sliced onion. Season with salt, pepper, and basil. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Step 5Mix and cook until the onion is translucent.
-
Step 6Place in a baking dish. Cover and bake for approximately 20 minutes at 375 degrees F.
-
Step 7Remove the cover and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
-
Step 8Sprinkle with a little fresh parsley and serve.
