Ingredients
  

Recipe Ingredients
  • 14 oz Smoked Sausage Diagonally sliced (400g)
  • 1.5 lbs Baby Yellow Potatoes Halved or quartered (680g)
  • 12 oz Whole Green Beans Fresh and trimmed (340g)
  • 3 tbsp Avocado Oil Or other high-heat oil (45ml)
  • 2 tsp Cajun Seasoning (10g)
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt (5g)
  • 1 tsp Coarse Black Pepper (5g)
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder (5g)
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley Chopped (8g)

Equipment

  • 1 Dark metal baking sheet Weathered metal helps with heat absorption.
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl For tossing ingredients in oil and spices.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and prepare a large, weathered dark metal baking sheet.
  2. Halve or quarter the baby yellow potatoes. Diagonally slice the smoked sausage into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Cooking
  1. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, green beans, and sausage with oil, Cajun seasoning, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until glistening and evenly coated.
  2. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet. Ensure no overcrowding to allow for proper roasting and blistering.
  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Look for charred edges on the sausage and wrinkled skins on the potatoes.
Finishing
  1. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley flakes. Serve warm.

Notes

Tip 1: Use a dark baking sheet for better browning and crispier potato skins.
Tip 2: Pat the green beans completely dry before roasting to ensure they blister rather than steam.
