Kielbasa Potato Bake

This simple smoked sausage and potato bake packs tons of flavor despite the simple 3 main ingredients.

I knew I’d love this simple meal when I ran across the recipe on Pinterest. The original recipe comes from Recipes from the Big Blue Binder.

Reason I knew I’d like this is my mom used to do something very similar with Italian sausage. In fact, Mom’s Sausage & Potato Bake was one of the first recipes I posted on this blog!

For extra flavor, use the cheddar variety of kielbasa

I love kielbasa–and I got a ton of it on sale a couple of weeks ago–and cheese and of course potatoes so I knew I couldn’t go wrong with this.

The only real adjustments I made to the original recipe were the seasonings. Where I like the herbs she used, I wasn’t sure if I’d like them in this so I went with something a little more subtle.

This is quick and easy. It’s very long on flavor too, thanks to the smoked sausage.

Served with assorted greens

I used the cheddar flavor sausage, but the regular variety is just as good if you can’t find the one with the cheese.

This is one recipe I didn’t get heavy-handed with the cheese. I found the flavors blended very well so that one ingredient didn’t overpower the other–but use more if you want!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb kielbasa
  • 4 large potatoes cut in 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp chopped onion
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup extra sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp olive oil for greasing foil
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a medium baking sheet (one with sides, like a jelly roll pan) with heavy-duty foil. Grease foil with the 1 tsp of olive oil.
  • Slice kielbasa into 1/4-inch slices. In a large bowl, combine the kielbasa, cubed potatoes, salt, onions, garlic powder and olive oil. Toss to coat contents of bowl with the olive oil.
  • Spread out on prepared baking sheet in a single layer if possible. Sprinkle with paprika.
  • Bake for 30-45 minutes, stirring around every 15 minutes to insure potatoes cook & sausage browns and crisps evenly.
  • When potatoes are soft, turn off oven; remove pan and distribute cheese across the top. Return to oven for about 5 minutes, or until cheese melts.

    Do you use a pre-cooked kielbasa sausage? I have some that’s not pre-cooked and wondered if I need to cook beforehand.

      I use the pre-cooked kind…like Hillshire Farms

      You should probably cook it before hand. The sausage may release a lot of liquid when cooked that you don’t want in your finished dish.

    I added some chunks of red pepper and left off the cheese. It was delicious.

    The Olive oil + Salt/seasonings + Baking the potatoes is what really sets off the flavor.
    I want to attempt a Casserole crock pot version of this pre browning the Kilbasa, then cooking it all on high for a spell.
    We’ll see. Always fun to try.
