1
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
-
2
Wash potatoes and leave the skins on.
-
3
Cut into large, equal-sized chunks, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
-
4
Slice the onion thickly, separate and place them in the bowl as well.
-
5
Add all of your dry ingredients, along with the olive oil, and give it a good mix to evenly distribute everything together.
-
6
Cut each sausage link into thirds and place in the bowl with the potatoes and onions.
-
7
From here, I mix this all together with my hands.
-
8
Gently mix the sausage into the potato and onion mixture, trying not to break apart the sausage as you do this.
-
9
Dump this all into a 13 x 9 baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
-
10
Place in the oven and allow this to cook for a minimum of one hour.
-
11
After an hour, turn the oven up to 400 degrees, remove the foil and place back in the oven until the sausage is nicely brown.
-
12
Stir every few minutes so all the sausage gets some equal browning space.
-
13
This can take anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes to achieve.
-
14
Make sure you watch this closely after returning to the oven so your potatoes and sausage dont burn.
-
15
Notes: I used light tasting olive oil, which is my preference.
-
16
If you prefer a stronger tasting oil, like extra virgin olive oil, feel free to use it.
-
17
While I normally cook with fresh, chopped garlic, I dont use it in this recipe, and substitute the garlic powder.
-
18
Fresh garlic tends to pool in the bottom of the dish, or on the top, and burns when browning the sausage.
