Polish Sausage Bake

The week between Christmas and New Year is often hectic; family might still be in town. Maybe it's back to work for you, but you've got that big New Year's Eve Party to plan.  But you don't need a holiday to make this quick and satisfying one dish meal.

Polish Sausage Bake
It's sliced Polish sausage, roasted with potato, baby carrots and onions, and topped with Caraway Seeds.  A hint of Horseradish gives it a spicy tang.  Delicious!

Here's what you need:

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients:

9 - 10 ounces Polish Sausage, sliced
1/2 Sweet Onion,  sliced thin
4 small Russet or 3 Red Potatoes, diced (skin on)
1/2 cup Baby Carrots
2 tablespoons Canola Oil
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/2 teaspoon Seasoned Salt
1/2 teaspoon Paprika (regular)
Freshly Ground Black Pepper, to taste
Sprinkling of Caraway Seeds
3 tablespoons Butter, cubed
1 tablespoon bottled/prepared Horseradish

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Place sausage, potato, onion and carrot into a baking pan.    Coat with Canola oil and spices.   Turn in pan with hands until all peices are coated. 

Top with Caraway Seeds. 

Bake for 30 minutes. 

Turn ingredients in pan.   Add water and stir.  Continue to bake for 45 minutes.


During the last five minutes of baking, add the butter.   This will help to thicken and flavor the sauce. 

Stir in Horseradish right before serving. 

I will be showing you some of what I prepared on the holiday.  A guest photographer took those pictures and I'm waiting to receive them.  We had the most perfect prime rib for dinner.  I cannot wait to share that with you this week.

Happy New Year!
