Making Sausage and Potato Foil Packs

Here are the steps to prepare this tasty recipe

  • Set the oven, or grill to preheat for cooking:
    • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
    • Turn the heat up to medium-high (425–450°F) on the grill.
  • Prepare the foil:
    • Tear off four 24-inch-long sheets of heavy-duty foil, and give them a quick mist of cooking spray.
  • Prepare the Veggies:
    • Then, cut the smoked sausage into coins to prepare the veggies. Chop the onion and cut the carrots into rounds. Slice the potatoes thinly, so that they are almost the same thickness as the carrots. They will cook more evenly the more even they are. To achieve equal slices, think about using the slicer at a thicker setting.
  • Season the Ingredients:
    •  Put the sausage, potatoes, carrots, onions, olive oil, packet of Italian seasoned dressing, salt, and pepper in a big bowl. Toss to blend well.
  • Put the Foil Packs together:

    • Evenly distribute the mixture among the four foil sheets.
    • Top each foil bag with one tablespoon of butter.
    • To ensure that the steam cannot escape, carefully seal the foil packs. If you intend to cook over fire, then only double wrap.
  • Cook the packs of foil:
    • If Using Oven: Bake the foil-wrapped vegetables on a sheet pan for 30 to 35 minutes, or until they are soft.
    • If You Prefer to Grill: Cook the vegetables for 20 to 30 minutes, turning them halfway through, or until they are soft.
  • Once ready, open the foil packs carefully to avoid getting burned by the steam. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley!
