Smoked Sausage, Potatoes, & Corn

This is one of my go-to easy meals! It’s quick to make and full of delicious flavors and hearty textures. Roasted veggies and smoky sausage is always a winning combo!

For a fun family dinner, serve it right from the sheet pan with buttered baguette slices to soak up the flavorful pan juices—it’s so good! And don’t skip the lemon—it adds the perfect bright finish!

This recipe has everything prepped for easy assembly: meat, veggies, lemon, seasonings, and oil.

Ingredients:

What you’ll need to make this One Pan Sausage, Potatoes, and Corn recipe:

  • Baby Potatoes: Cut in half so they cook evenly and faster. Keep the skin on for more flavor and texture.
  • Smoked Sausage: Any kind works. Beef or pork is richer, while chicken or turkey is lighter.
  • Red Pepper: Cut into similar-sized pieces so they cook to an even crisp-tender.
  • Red Onion: Slice thin so it softens and gets sweeter as it cooks.
  • Frozen Corn: Use fire-roasted for extra smoky flavor. No need to thaw first!
  • Garlic Cloves: Smash them to add flavor to the potatoes; toss out after baking.
  • Paprika: Smoked paprika gives a deeper flavor with more spice. Use regular paprika if you’d prefer

Sausage, Potatoes, and Corn: The Finishing Touches

  • Lemon Juice: Squeeze fresh lemon over the dish to brighten the flavors.
  • Fresh Parsley: Optional but adds a nice color and freshness.
  • Toasted Baguette: Great for soaking up the juices and adding a crunchy side.
Cook the potatoes, toss the other ingredients together in a bowl to season, then combine everything for this one-skillet sausage, potatoes, and corn recipe.

How To Make Sausage, Potatoes, & Corn

  1. Prep and roast potatoes: Halve potatoes, toss with oil, paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper. Roast at 400°F for 15 minutes.
  2. Add sausage and veggies: Toss potatoes, then add sausage, red pepper, and onion with oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes.
  3. Add corn: Toss everything, add corn, and bake for 5 more minutes.
  4. Finish and serve: Drizzle with lemon juice, sprinkle parsley, and serve with buttered baguette slices.
Add all the veggies and meat to the skillet to cook together.

Storage

  • This sausage, potatoes, and corn dish is best enjoyed fresh right out of the oven for the best flavors and textures.
  • If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or a skillet to bring back some crispness.
  • Avoid freezing, as the textures may change.

Serve and enjoy this one-skillet sausage, potatoes, and corn!

Note 1: Any smoked sausage works. I typically use beef or pork smoked sausage (or a combo of the two) for this recipe. Use chicken or turkey sausage for a more nutritious meal.
