How to Make Fall Sausage Skillet Dinner

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard until well combined.
  2. Slice 1 pound of your favorite sausage (Italian sausage recommended) into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Pour the honey-mustard sauce over the sausage. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion.
  5. Add 2 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced, and 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced, to the skillet.
  6. Cover the skillet and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the apples are softened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Serve immediately with a fresh salad, crusty bread, and your choice of roasted vegetables.
