Skillet bratwurst and potatoes is a classic dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends when you want a satisfying meal without a lot of fuss. It’s also a great way to use up any leftover veggies you have in the fridge, making it a versatile and budget-friendly option.
The key to this recipe is using high-quality ingredients, such as fresh veggies, good-quality bratwurst, and a flavorful seasoning blend. We recommend using Tower Grove Spice Co All Purpose Seasoning, a blend of 18 different herbs and spices that adds depth and complexity to any dish.
This recipe is also customizable based on your personal preferences. You can swap out the green beans for your favorite veggie, or use a different type of sausage if you prefer. And because everything cooks in one pan, clean-up is a breeze.
Now, let’s get to the ingredient list and instructions so you can make this delicious meal for yourself!
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes, quartered
- 1 small onion, sweet if possible
- 1 red bell pepper
- Roughly 2 cups green veggie of your choice (we chose green beans)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:
-
Start by prepping your veggies. Cut the potatoes into quarters and slice the onion and bell pepper into thin strips. Trim the ends off the green beans and set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the potatoes and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown and soften.
-
Add the onion, bell pepper, and green beans to the skillet and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
-
While the veggies are cooking, heat a separate skillet over medium-high heat and add the bratwurst. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the brats are browned and cooked through.
-
Once the veggies are done, sprinkle them with Tower Grove Spice Co All Purpose Seasoning to taste. Stir to coat the veggies evenly.
-
Serve the veggies alongside the cooked bratwurst for a delicious and satisfying meal. Enjoy!
