Sausage Skillet Dinner

Just got my new Simple & Delicious in the mail last week WOOT! This is the first of a few recipes we'll be trying out of this one (Nov/Dec '09). This one was DEEE licious.

Sausage Skillet Dinner
3/4 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces (smoked sausage comes in 1-lb packages, so I used a whole pound in this recipe.)
2 tbsp butter
2 cups refrigerated red potato wedges (found @ Hannaford, they don't have them @ Walmart)
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
1 apple, cut into wedges
1/4 cup cider vinegar
3 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp caraway seeds (I knew by the ingredients that we would love this, even without expensive caraway seeds, so I didn't buy them)
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley (another thing I left out)

In a large skillet, saute sausage in butter for 3 minutes. Add the potatoes, onion, and apple; saute 4-5 minutes longer or until apple is tender and potatoes are golden brown. Stir in the vinegar, sugar, and caraway seeds. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with parsley. 4 servings.

I cannot tell you how happy I am with this recipe. It really tasted so so good. The kids were a bit weirded out by warm apples, but they ate them. Nathan even ate this, but not the potatoes because he doesn't like them. We tried to tell him that potatoes were the main (only) ingredient in french fries but he did not believe us. He's so silly. Anyway this one is definitely a keeper and you should really try it!
