Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 small onion, cut into large chunks
  • 2 Tablespoons oil (light olive oil or canola oil)
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 16 ounce package smoked turkey sausage, sliced into 1-inch pieces

Optional for Serving

  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Honey mustard, ketchup, or barbecue sauce for dipping

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Slice the baby potatoes in half and cut the small onion into large chunks to ensure even cooking in the air fryer.
  2. Season Potatoes and Onion: Place the potatoes and onion into a gallon-size zip-top bag, then add oil, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Seal the bag and shake thoroughly to evenly coat all pieces in oil and spices.
  3. Preheat and Spray Air Fryer Basket: Lightly spray the 6-quart air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking before adding ingredients.
  4. Cook Potatoes and Onions: Transfer the coated potatoes and onions to the air fryer basket and cook at 400°F (204°C) for 15 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through cooking to promote even browning.
  5. Add Sausage: While potatoes cook, slice the smoked turkey sausage into 1-inch pieces. After the first 15 minutes, add the sausage to the air fryer basket with the potatoes and onions and cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through and crisp slightly.
  6. Finish and Serve: Once cooking is complete, optionally sprinkle the dish with dried parsley for color and flavor. Serve hot with honey mustard, ketchup, or barbecue sauce for dipping if desired.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, cut potatoes into similar sizes and avoid overcrowding the basket.
  • You can substitute smoked turkey sausage with your favorite smoked sausage or kielbasa.
  • If you don’t have seasoned salt, you can substitute with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon smoked paprika or your preferred seasoning blend.
  • Use oil with a high smoke point such as canola or light olive oil for best air frying results.
  • Shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even cooking and crispness.
