Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Polska kielbasa
- 1 medium head cabbage, diced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2–3 tablespoons butter
- Cracked black pepper, for garnish
For the Roasted Potatoes:
- 1 Russet potato, peeled and sliced thin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the seasonings for the potatoes.
- Peel the potato, cut it in half lengthwise, and slice thin (half moon shapes).
- In a bowl, toss the sliced potatoes with olive oil and the seasoning blend.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet.

- Serve, garnished with cracked black pepper.
- ENJOY!
Notes
- Easily substitute the kielbasa with smoked sausage or turkey sausage.
