Notes

Top Tips

Since the sausage already has a lot of sodium, take care to not over salt the peppers and the potatoes. Leave the seasoning to the very end so that you can gauge how much salt you need to season the dish.

To get that caramelized flavor, bring the temperature up just above medium and let the potatoes and peppers sit without stirring for a good 5 minutes before stirring. Repeat until you have the desired amount of charr on the potatoes and peppers.
