Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and ½ cup diced bell pepper and cook for about 5 minutes, until starting to soften.
Add 2 cups diced sweet potato, 1 cup diced red potatoes, and 6 oz pre-cooked chicken sausage. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden and starting to soften.
Add 1 cup granny smith apple and cook for 3-4 minutes, until slightly softened but still have a little bite.
Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
Sausage: I use Aidells chicken apple sausage, but any pre-cooked sausage works. Pork breakfast sausage is also great here, but if it's raw, you'll want to cook it before starting the rest of the ecipe. If you're gluten-free, check the label.
Potatoes: Dice everything to about ½ inch so it cooks evenly. Don't skip the red potatoes. They balance out the sweetness.
Apples: Granny Smith works best because it's tart. Honeycrisp is a good backup.
Make it your own: Top with a fried egg, add some white cheddar, or throw in diced bacon.
Storage: Refrigerate for 3-4 days. Reheat in a skillet for best results.
