Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound smoked sausage (halal-certified, no pork) Turkey or beef sausage works great.
  • 4 cups baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix Verify halal certification on the packet.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese Low-moisture cheddar melts best.
  • 1/2 cup sour cream Optional, for serving.
  • Fresh parsley to taste chopped Optional, for garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or lightly grease it.
  2. Wash baby potatoes and cut them in half (or quarters if large). Pat dry.
  3. Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch rounds.
  4. In a small bowl, combine ranch seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir to blend.
  5. Place potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and add half the seasoning mix. Toss until evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Spread the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding.
  2. Scatter the sliced sausage over the potatoes. Sprinkle the remaining seasoning over everything.
  3. Roast for 35–40 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
  4. Remove the sheet from the oven. Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly over the potatoes and sausage. Return to oven for 4–6 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with a dollop of sour cream if desired.
