Step-By-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a large baking dish for easy cleanup. You can also line it with parchment paper if you prefer!
2️⃣ Toss & Coat
In a large bowl, combine the sliced smoked sausage, halved baby potatoes, and trimmed fresh green beans.
Drizzle everything with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Toss it all together, ensuring everything is evenly coated in those delicious seasonings.
3️⃣ Bake Covered
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
4️⃣ Uncover & Continue Baking
After 30 minutes, remove the foil, stir the casserole, and return it to the oven to bake uncovered for another 15-20 minutes. The potatoes should be tender, and everything will have a golden, crispy edge.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy
Once it’s ready, sprinkle the casserole with shredded Parmesan cheese (if using) and serve it hot! This dish is perfect on its own or paired with a simple side salad.
Pro Tips for Success
✔ Use Baby Potatoes – Baby potatoes cook quickly and evenly, but you can also use regular potatoes, just cut them into smaller pieces.
