This simple gluten-free sausage, kale, and potato skillet is an easy one-pan dinner that comes together quickly. Rustic and satisfying, it’s perfect for weeknights. I prefer a cast iron skillet for even heat, but any frying pan will do.

Ingredients
Olive oil
Red or yellow potatoes
Sausages (chicken sausages or bratwursts work well)
Yellow onion
Kale
Sea salt
Coarse ground black pepper
Garlic powder
Dried oregano
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the potatoes and sausage, letting them brown and begin to cook through.
When the potatoes start to become tender, add the sliced onion. Continue cooking until the onion is translucent and the sausage is fully cooked.
Stir in the chopped kale and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano. Cook, stirring, until the kale is wilted and everything is heated through.
Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately.
Supplies
A large skillet or cast iron pan works best for this one-pan meal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Rinse the skillet with hot water to remove loose food and oil. Use a chainmail scrubber or stiff brush if needed to remove stuck-on bits. Dry the pan completely over low heat, then rub a tablespoon of oil over the inside with a paper towel. Let it cool and store dry. Do not put cast iron in the dishwasher.
Yes. Cook the potatoes, sausage, and onions with the seasonings, but leave out the kale. Cool and transfer to a freezer-safe container. When reheating, warm the mixture in a skillet and add fresh kale at the end, cooking just until wilted. Serve hot.
