Have dinner on the table in less than 20 minutes with this 5-ingredient Steakhouse Potato, Sausage & Goat Cheese Skillet!
I have a confession. I used to not like goat cheese. My first real experience with it was in Washington. We were staying with my aunt for the week, and my cousin Emily was getting married. Her brother Ivan prepared us all this amazing tapas dinner one night. There were Bacon-Wrapped Scallops in Pomegranate Sauce, Vegetable Crepes, Fried Goat Cheese with Confit Onions, and more! The goat cheese he picked was gamey, like really gamey. I’m taking you just stepped onto the farm gamey. And that’s “real people” who like goat cheese like it. I’m not that person. It’s mild for me all the way. So what does this have to do with dinner?
I needed to make dinner the other night and I was completely burnt out on chicken breasts and the usually stuff I make. I was staring into the fridge blankly. Then I just started grabbing things. I had a couple chicken sausages from the other night. There were some peppers = flavor and pretty colors, goat cheese, and Simply Potatoes Steakhouse Seasoned Diced Potatoes I had gotten on sale the week before. I use Simply Potatoes for weekend breakfast hashbrowns all the time, but I wanted to try something different. And I’m so glad I did!
These potatoes rocked! They had so much flavor, paired great with the other ingredients, and I had dinner on the table in a snap. I didn’t even season this dish. Seriously. The potatoes did the work for me. This is an awesome, easy weeknight meal. If your family is a bit skiddish about goat cheese, some feta would be a great substitute or even sharp cheddar. Just pick a cheese with a little attitude. You can find more great potato recipes on the Simply Potatoes Favorites recipe page and by visiting Simply Potatoes on Pinterest.
