Notes
Change up the protein: You might like to pair smoked andouille sausage and shrimp for a gumbo-inspired riff on the recipe.
Get slicing: If you slice the sausage before serving, it's easier to serve up equal portions.
Other sides: If you don't want potatoes or fries, what about serving your skillet cooked sausage dish over buttered pasta or with roasted vegetables or some salad?
