Tender red potatoes, crisp sweet corn and slightly spicy kielbasa sausage are sauteed together and then tossed with oregano and thyme for a meal that my whole family loves.
Fresh or dried herbs work well in this meal, either kind will combine with the potatoes for a very flavorful skillet meal. This is a meal that I’ve been making without a recipe for so many years now; I had to actually pay attention to what I was doing and write down the recipe the last time I made it.
If you have fresh corn available, use it. Nothing truly compares with fresh corn in most dishes. (I’ve been cooking with fresh corn every single chance I get lately!)
However, I’ve made this with fresh, frozen and canned corn and all versions are delicious! Served with a fresh salad or just a handful of vegetables on the side, this is a very simple meal that we all enjoy.
