Ingredients

Grilled Sausages:

  • Sausages (any variety, such as bratwurst, Italian, or smoked): 4–6

Crispy Potato Slices:

  • Russet potatoes, thinly sliced: 2 large
  • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon
  • Black pepper: ¼ teaspoon
  • Garlic powder: ½ teaspoon
  • Paprika: ½ teaspoon
  • Fresh rosemary or thyme (optional): 1 teaspoon, chopped

Optional Ingredients:

  • Chopped parsley, for garnish
  • Grated Parmesan, for sprinkling on potatoes after cooking
  • Favorite dipping sauces (ketchup, mustard, aioli, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potato Slices:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) or set up a grill with medium-high heat.
  • In a bowl, toss potato slices with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and optional herbs until well coated.
  1. Cook the Potatoes:
  • Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. Alternatively, cook on a grill mat or foil on the grill until crisp.
  1. Grill the Sausages:
  • While the potatoes bake, preheat a grill to medium heat. Place sausages on the grill, cooking for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until sausages are browned and cooked through.
  1. Serve:
  • Arrange grilled sausages and crispy potato slices on a serving platter. Garnish with chopped parsley and sprinkle with Parmesan if desired.
  • Serve with a variety of dipping sauces and enjoy hot!

Tips for Success

  • Use a mandoline or sharp knife for even potato slices; thinner slices will be crispier.
  • Preheat your grill or oven to ensure even cooking.
  • Check sausage temperatures (aim for 160°F for pork or beef sausages) to ensure they are cooked through without overcooking.

Recommendations

  • Pair this dish with a light side salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal.
  • Experiment with sausage flavors to match your taste—spicy, sweet, or smoky varieties all work well.
