This viral recipe features smoked sausage, potatoes, and green beans, and comes together easily in the slow cooker.
Ingredients
3 pounds gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 pound fresh or frozen green beans (do not thaw), halved if longer than 2 inches
12 to 14 ounces smoked sausage, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 small yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon olive or avocado oil
1 (1-ounce) packet onion soup mix
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning with salt or Old Bay seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
Finely chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish (optional)
Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
Place 3 pounds chopped gold potatoes, 1 pound fresh green beans (if using frozen, reserve for later), 12 to 14 ounces sliced smoked sausage, and 1 diced small yellow onion in a 5-quart or larger slow cooker. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with 1 (1-ounce) packet onion soup mix, 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Stir until everything is evenly coated. Place 4 tablespoons unsalted butter on top.
Cover and cook, stirring every hour or two, until the potatoes are fork-tender, 4 to 5 hours on the HIGH setting or 6 to 7 hours on the LOW setting. If using frozen green beans, stir them in halfway through the cook time.
Taste and season with more kosher salt or black pepper as needed. Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley leaves and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
