Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients needed for this recipe – sausage links, potatoes, onion, bell pepper, garlic salt, cheddar cheese, and oil.
-
Sauté Sausage: Begin by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet, then add the sausage links. Sauté the sausage until they are nicely browned on all sides, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
-
Add Aromatics: Once the sausage is browned, add in the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt for extra flavor. Continue cooking for about 1 minute, allowing the vegetables to soften and release their fragrant aroma.
-
Cook Potatoes: Next, it’s time to add the star of the show – the potatoes. Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces, then add them to the skillet with the sausage and vegetables. Make sure the potatoes are evenly distributed in the skillet.
-
Cook Until Tender: Cook the potatoes over medium heat, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking. Continue cooking until the potatoes are tender and have developed a beautiful golden brown color. This should take approximately 10-12 minutes, depending on the size of your potato pieces.
-
Add Cheese: Once the potatoes are cooked to perfection, it’s time to add the cheese. Sprinkle 4 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the potatoes and sausage mixture.
-
Melt Cheese: Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the cheese to melt into the hot potatoes. This should only take a couple of minutes, as the residual heat from the skillet will help melt the cheese quickly.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the cheese has melted, remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the Dogs And Taters hot, straight from the skillet, for a delicious and satisfying meal that’s packed with flavor.
Tips: For an extra cheesy twist, try using a blend of different cheeses such as mozzarella, provolone, or Monterey Jack. You can also customize this recipe by adding your favorite herbs and spices, such as paprika, thyme, or rosemary, to enhance the flavor even more. Serve Dogs And Taters with a side of crusty bread or a simple green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
