Ingredients
14 oz kielbasa sausage, sliced into thick coins
1 1/2 lb baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into bite-size chunks
1 medium onion, cut into chunks

4. Add the sliced kielbasa to the basket and toss everything together.
5. Cook for another 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket once or twice, until the potatoes are golden and tender and the sausage is browned around the edges.

Notes / Tips
Cut the potatoes into even pieces so they cook at the same rate.
Do not overcrowd the basket or the potatoes will steam instead of crisp.
If your potatoes are larger or firmer, cook them 2–4 minutes longer before adding the sausage.
Smoked sausage browns quickly, so add it after the potatoes have started cooking.
For extra color and crisp edges, give the basket a final 1–2 minutes at 400°F.
Variations
Add bell peppers for more color and a sweeter flavor.
Use chicken sausage instead of kielbasa for a lighter version.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy version.
Finish with a little shredded cheddar or Parmesan for a richer dinner.
