- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:
- Cook the sausage: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the sausage. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the potatoes: In the same skillet, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced potatoes. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet with the potatoes. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant. Season with smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Combine everything: Return the cooked sausage to the skillet, stirring to combine with the potatoes and vegetables. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top and serve hot.
