  • Bake for 25 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven. Flip halfway through to preheat over browning. While the potatoes cook, prepare the remaining ingredients.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and use a wooden spoon or spatula to break into small pieces as it cooks. Continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes or until there is no pink remaining in the sausage. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage from the pan, and drain any excess grease.
