Sausage and Fries

There is nothing like a good ole’ link and some potatoes!! Believe it or not, but this meal came together in a quick 25 mins!! I used a chicken apple sausage link (LOVE LOVE LOVE), peppers and onions, some whole grain mustard, yellow mustard and pickles, which are all nestled between a chewy pretzel bun. The fries are russet potatoes with some cajun seasonings. The heat from the fries went along great with the sweet tang of the sausage dog.

MY 25 MINS

I preheated my oven to 425. Directly after, I grabbed half a stick of butter and started melting it on medium low heat in a cast iron skillet. After the butter was melted I added cut up yellow bell peppers, green peppers, jalepeno peppers, and a sweet yellow onion. Watching the heat, I left it on medium low to let all the good caramelize, stirring occasionally. To a sheet pan, I added sliced up russet potatoes tossed them in olive oil. I then covered the potatoes with cajun seasonings, and S&P. Off into the oven they went! After the “goods” in the cast iron skillet start to get golden brown (about 15 mins), I removed them from the pan onto a paper towel to let them drain. I turned up the heat on the pan and added my chicken apple sausages. Since they come already cooked through, all I needed to do was heat them up and get a good crust on them. The remaining butter in the pan did a beautiful job making them look mouthwatering!! By this time, my 25 mins is just about up. My fries should be cooked through and a little crispy on the edges after about 20 mins. I pull them out, and drain them off of any excess oil. Now….The best part, assembling this all together! I place my link in a soft pretzel bun, topping it off with whole grain mustard, yellow mustard, diced pickles, and my caramelized  peppers and onions. If you want a little kick, add some sriracha. Then stack the seasoned fries right next to your dog, and FEAST! ENJOY!
