Instant Pot Cajun Sausage, Potatoes and Green Beans
I saw a recipe for foil packets that had sausage, potatoes and beans in it. I thought it sounded good but in all reality I would probably never make them since I don’t really camp or use my grill that often. I decided to transform the recipe into a one pot Instant Pot meal. It worked out perfectly and the flavors were so scrumptious.
I don’t like cajun seasoning. If you’re not a fan of cajun seasoning your could use kielbasa sausage instead of andouille and use a different seasoning like montreal chicken seasoning or lemon pepper seasoning.
Where did you find your sausage? There are all sorts of types of sausage. For example chicken sausage with apples or kielbasa sausage. They look like plump hot dogs and come in a 12 ounce package. Really you could use any kind of sausage that you want. I chose an andouille cajun style sausage. I found mine in the grocery store by the bacon and other cured meats.
Can I use canned green beans? No. Don’t do it! Fresh green beans taste so great in this meal so use fresh. Plus canned green beans would get really mushy.
I don’t like mushrooms. It’s fine. You don’t have to add mushrooms in. You can definitely leave them out.
Can I use another type of potato besides red potatoes? You can. Yellow potatoes will cook at the same rate as red potatoes. Russet potatoes will take a bit longer and I would peel the russet potatoes if I were you. Add 1-2 minutes to the cooking time for russet potatoes.

What Pressure Cooker Did You Use?
To make Instant Pot Cajun Sausage, Potatoes and Green Beans I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. I love this Instant Pot because it has the yogurt making function which I use almost weekly. It has two pressure settings (high and low), and there are also little slots in the handles so that you can rest the lid there instead of putting it down on your counter-top.

Kelly says
May 14, 2019 at 6:39 pmI am doubling JUST the sausage (not potatoes or beans – and not doing mushrooms). How do I go from there? Do I need to double broth? And what about cooking time? Thanks
Karen says
May 15, 2019 at 9:35 pmUse the same amount of broth. Keep the cooking time the same.
Katie says
April 28, 2019 at 4:20 pmDoes the sausage have to be pre cooked or can you use fresh, uncooked sausage
Karen says
April 29, 2019 at 8:20 amYou could but you’d need to brown it first.
Karen says
April 26, 2019 at 6:22 pmHi Karen. I just made this great recipe. I came out perfect. I did leave out the salt and used crimini mushrooms instead of white mushrooms. Everything was as per your recipe. Thank you so very much for this recipe and all the other ones you post. Your site is my go-to site for recipes and information on IPs.

May 13, 2019 at 3:22 pmHi wondering if I have to triple recipe (big family) will it have to cook longer? And do I still ad the water? New to this sorry
Karen says

Kathleen says
April 24, 2019 at 6:39 pmAll the textures were great. I have a 8 quart and I used 1-1/2 cups of broth. But…… I found out that we don’t care for the Cajun flavor. Any suggestions on other seasonings? Thanks!!!!!
★★★★
Karen says
April 25, 2019 at 9:07 amWhat about lemon pepper or montreal chicken seasoning or maybe even ranch dressing mix?
Elizabeth says
May 10, 2019 at 5:17 pmForgot to cook saugage not say cook it first..is it to late
Karen says
May 10, 2019 at 7:53 pmthe sausage doesn’t need to be cooked, if it’s smoked sausage it’s already cooked.
Al Penaluna says
April 15, 2019 at 3:45 pmOk I have and been using my insta pot since last year. I’ve made at lest a dozen recipes, many with potatoes. Even cut into chunks they always take seven to eight minutes to cook to soft. So why do you and most others suggest only three to four minutes. If I do that they are still rock hard. I use a Lux 6 qt insta pot and I saw only one comment that went seven minutes, i usually go eight. So how does that work? Because of a surgery my wife cannot eat spicy things and she don’t like mushrooms so when I make this tonight I’ll omit the shrooms and use all beef hot dogs. The recipe looks good though and can’t wait to try it. Also I’ll use Grill Masters seasoning, about as spicy as I can get for her. Thank you much, home Chef Al 🙂👍😉🤠
Karen says
April 16, 2019 at 11:41 amFor this particular recipe the pot is fairly full so it takes a while to come to pressure so the potatoes are cooking that entire time. I’m not sure about other recipes you’ve made. What type of potatoes do you use?
Re says
April 7, 2019 at 8:56 pmHow can you cut down on the sodium?
Karen says
April 8, 2019 at 2:58 pmYou could. Eliminate the kosher salt. Use low sodium broth. Perhaps low sodium sausage too.
Wanda Gibson says
April 3, 2019 at 9:20 pmI fixed this quick meal for my 91 year old dad. He loved it, heard him brag to my nephew on the phone. I felt I needed more flavor since dad cant eat the spices, so I used one small pork flavored gravey mix sprinkled on top of all the ingredients before I put the lid on to cook. Everything tasted great. Will make again.

Freida Miller says
March 10, 2019 at 11:51 amMy family loved this recipe asked me to make it again. Just one question can I add shrimp to it and would the time be the same?
Karen says
March 11, 2019 at 2:21 pmShrimp cooks so quickly. I might cook without the shrimp. Quick release. Then add the shrimp in the pot and put the lid back on. the heat in the pot will cook the shrimp in maybe 5-10 minutes, just on the warm setting.
Sue says
April 14, 2019 at 3:40 pmI have a shrimp recipe that cooks the shrimp under pressure in 4 minutes. They need to be large and frozen.
Lori says
March 10, 2019 at 10:00 amI really enjoyed this recipe. It was so easy! I accidentally bought sliced mushrooms, but still came out great.
Anybody searching for sausage.. I used Johnsonville Andouille sausage.
★★★★★
Karen says
March 11, 2019 at 2:20 pmSounds great thanks for sharing your experience.
Sharon says
March 6, 2019 at 7:12 pmDelicious. Used less salt and used 2 tsp. of salt free cajun seasoning and 2 tsp. regular cajun seasoning. Only had beef smoked sausage on hand, but it was still very good. Also used less butter to save on calories. As other reviewers indicated, sauteed some onion with the sausage and added some minced garlic before adding the rest of the ingredients. Three minutes was the perfect amount of time. A definite do-again recipe.
★★★★★
Karen says
March 7, 2019 at 9:12 pmThanks for sharing your experience. You are making my mouth water! sounds delish.
Kristina says
April 15, 2019 at 7:19 pmI made this tonight and it was AWESOME! I used sweet potato (not yam) and left out the Cajun seasoning. I added some garlic and onion instead. It was a hit. Thanks for this simple, but delicious recipe.
Karen says
April 16, 2019 at 11:39 amSounds good with the sweet potatoes!
Cris says
March 3, 2019 at 7:47 amDo you have any idea how you would cook this in a crock pot? I want to share the recipe with my cousin but she doesn’t have an instant pot. 🙁
Karen says
March 6, 2019 at 9:37 amHere is the cp version: https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/slow-cooker-cajun-sausage-potatoes-and-green-beans/
Cris says
March 3, 2019 at 7:19 amYES! What a delicious tasting dinner. I followed your recipe using Boar’s Head smoked uncured kielbasa and reduced the Cajun spice to 2 tps (my husband doesn’t like a lot of spice). Cooked to perfection. I saw a few posts that the green beans were a bit mushy, I used regular fresh beans and they were tender but in no way overcooked. Thanks so much for sharing your recipe and making life a little easier at dinner time.
★★★★★
Karen says
March 6, 2019 at 9:36 amNICE!!! Thanks for sharing Cris.
Debbie says
February 25, 2019 at 8:20 pmThis was delicious! I added some onion and couple cloves of garlic. Big hit in my house and will definitely make again!

Jeremy says
February 15, 2019 at 4:20 pmCould I add cubed chicken to this or is the cooking time to short?
Karen says
February 19, 2019 at 9:15 amYes you could and I think they’d totally be fine. The only thing is that the sausage adds a lot of flavor so you may want to season your chicken a bit.
Robin says
May 19, 2019 at 12:35 pmShould you cook the cubed chicken on saute or from raw?
Karen says
May 20, 2019 at 11:20 amIf they’re in small bite size pieces 3 minutes of pressure cook time will be enough to cook them from raw.
Carol D says
January 31, 2019 at 7:36 pmGreat recipe. I sauteed my sausage and onions in some olive oil and part of the butter called for for 2 minutes; add crushed garlic and sauteed for a minute more. Add the potatoes and green beans and 2 1/4 cups of home made chicken stock and lemon pepper seasoning and rest of the butter. Since I had been cooking in my pot it came to pressure very quickly and my husband said the potatoes and green beans needed another minute. Served this with corn bread and it was a hit.
★★★★★
Carol D says
January 31, 2019 at 7:38 pmI have an 8 qt pressure cooker is why I had to add 2 1/4 cups of water. This left alot of wonderful broth that went well with the home made corn bread.
Donna says
January 31, 2019 at 6:52 pmI made this tonight in the 3 quart instant pot. I used frozen green beans and onion in place of the mushrooms. Perfect size for 2 people. I kept the sausage the same, but cut down on the veggies.
★★★★★
Lisa Mendoza says
January 30, 2019 at 8:16 pmThis was amazing. My husband said it is his favorite Instant Pot recipe I have made so far! I should’ve read the comments before starting because i doubled the recipe and the 3 min cook time made the potatoes and green beens a little mushy. But we love them that way anyway!! Glad we have some leftovers for the next few days!!
★★★★★
Karen says
January 31, 2019 at 2:00 pmso glad you enjoyed it!
Jan says
January 28, 2019 at 7:29 pmMade this tonight….added too much Cajun spice but still OM Goodness delicious!!
Windy Harrison says
January 20, 2019 at 7:25 pmI just made this recipe and thought it turned out really good. Unfortunately I didn’t have any fresh green beans so I tried my luck with the canned green beans. Although fresh may be better, I thought the canned was pretty good myself. I used Old Bay seasoning. Delish.
★★★★
Karen says
January 24, 2019 at 5:21 pmDid you pressure cook the beans?
Jess Curtis says
January 16, 2019 at 7:11 pmMade tonight!! This is delicious!!! I followed the recipe except used can green bean with 0 pressure at the end. Perfect!! I never finish my meal but going for 2nds. Yum!!!!
★★★★★
Karen says
January 17, 2019 at 11:27 amNice!!
Ness says
January 11, 2019 at 5:26 pmI didn’t have some of the ingredients, so used turkey kielbasa, 1/4 onion, russet potatoes, minced garlic and a can of original rotel. Salt, pepper and lemon pepper and used water instead. 5 minutes was perfect! Still very yummy! Can’t wait to try as written next time!
Karen says
January 12, 2019 at 11:26 amYour version sounds great!
Pam Barber says
January 6, 2019 at 9:37 pmOMG! YUM!
Still licking my chops as I write this. Made as written, using Aidells Cajun Style Andouille, but used a tsp less Cajun seasoning and just a pinch of salt.
Husband and I both loved it. Definitely a keeper! I can’t wait to try it with different sausage and seasoning combinations. Thank you so much for an awesome quick IP recipe.
★★★★★
Jessica says
January 4, 2019 at 8:08 pmMade this yesterday! Was such a great one pot meal and very flavorful! I used a pack of fully cooked chicken sausages (pear and Gouda flavored from Sam’s) and followed the instructions exactly as written. Since the pot was pretty full It did take awhile to come to pressure which was perfect for me to grab a quick shower while it was cooking! My picky husband really like it too and he normally is strictly a pasta guy, (anti potatoes) but he loved the flavorful broth. I loved that it had all the components of a balanced meal and super easy to make after work. Thank you for sharing 🙂
★★★★★
Tara says
January 1, 2019 at 7:57 pmFlavors were good, but I’ll cut down on the salt next time. Sauteed the sausage then the mushrooms in some of the butter noted in the recipe to give some more depth of flavor-so good! However, the 3 minutes cook time was too much. Beans and potatoes were overcooked…especially the potatoes. I’ll try the 0 cook time option next time.
★★★★
Julie says
December 26, 2018 at 9:56 pmCan I add squash and zucchini?
Karen says
December 27, 2018 at 2:40 pmyes but after it has pressure cooked. Otherwise they will get too mushy.
Nancy says
January 30, 2019 at 11:14 amCan I make this with bratwurst instead of the sausage?
Karen says
January 30, 2019 at 2:14 pmyes that would be really tasty
Gabrielle Barto says
December 19, 2018 at 10:03 pmI have a 6 quart IP. Can I double this recipe and still cook it for the same amount of time of 3 minutes???
★★★★★
Karen says
December 20, 2018 at 6:55 pmAs long as it doesn’t go over the max fill line it should be good. I’d reduce the cooking time to 2 minutes since it will take longer to come to pressure.
Ashley says
December 3, 2018 at 2:30 pmI did sweet potatoes instead of regular and add bell peppers…. delicious.
Karen says
December 4, 2018 at 8:51 pmThat sounds really good!
Tiffany says
November 29, 2018 at 4:07 pmI’m confused on this. I just bought the 8qt Instant pot and it says you must always have at least 18 oz water to pressure cook. So how could I make this? Even if i double the recipe it won’t be enough.
Karen says
November 30, 2018 at 1:54 pmYou can add 18 ounces of broth and then make the rest of the recipe as stated. You’ll just have a lot of liquid in the bottom. But you can drain it off if you want!
isobel says
December 19, 2018 at 7:42 pmI made this for supper & I sautéed an onion & garlic & the mushrooms.I then followed the recipe I have an 8 quart instant pot so I doubled the broth & added an extra minute for the cooking! When I make this again I would leave it at 3 minutes like the recipe said! It was delicious!!
Karen says
December 20, 2018 at 6:57 pmYUM!!
Michele says
April 14, 2019 at 3:56 pmI used my 8 quart and only did a little over a cup of broth. No issues coming to pressure at all. I will reduce the salt next time. I’m so glad someone asked about shrimp because that is what I came here looking for. Will try adding frozen shrimp as well next time and maybe reduce the time to 2 minutes. Very good recipe. Both hubby and teenage son loved it.
Jennifer says
November 11, 2018 at 2:59 pmI’m new to the insta pot, if I have canned green beans and add them at the end like others says, what does the 0 pressure mean?? Sorry to ask such a dumb question.
Karen says
November 12, 2018 at 9:40 pmOh the 0 pressure cook time just means you set the timer all the way down to zero. That means the pot will build pressure and then as soon as it reaches pressure it will beep and turn off. So it heats the beans up but doesn’t overcook them.
Lisa says
November 9, 2018 at 6:52 pmDo you cook the sausage first?
Or does it go in uncooked?
Karen says
November 12, 2018 at 9:33 pmI left mine uncooked. You could brown it if you like.
Julie says
November 2, 2018 at 8:41 pmDo you set the pressure cooker to low or high pressure?
★★★★
Karen says
November 5, 2018 at 4:48 pmhigh pressure!
Julie says
November 7, 2018 at 1:49 pmThanks! Could you also use precooked turkey sausage? I’m
Karen says
November 8, 2018 at 7:50 pmyes I think that would be great!
Lacey says
November 2, 2018 at 6:07 pmThis is such a simple, easy recipe and yet so good. I want to eat the entire pot’s worth in one sitting!

Karen says
October 28, 2018 at 7:35 pmI tried this today with a few minor changes since I didn’t have all of the same ingredients. OMG it was so delicious even my picky teenage son loved it. It was so quick which is nice on a busy work night! Will definitely be making again. Thank you!

SandyToes says
September 23, 2018 at 6:14 pmHi Karen,
I’m making this tomorrow with chicken andoulle sausage. Will the timing be the same, or less?
Karen says
September 24, 2018 at 12:38 pmIt should be exactly the same! I hope you like it!
Sheryl says
September 23, 2018 at 3:54 pmI made this in my crockpot. 4-5hours on low. Green beans we re a touch al Dente but I like them that way. The potatoes were perfect. My husband loved it. Next time I will use more Cajun spice.
Gail says
September 22, 2018 at 7:07 amIt’s so funny to me (well,, not really) that some say 3 minutes and the green beans turned to mush; others say the 3 minutes was perfect, and for me, I actually had to do 7 minutes (!!) and everything was perfect, and I had even cut my potatoes into really small pieces!
Regardless of the time – and folks need to realize that time is just an average estimate – RMV (results may vary), this was a very quick, easy, and inexpensive, awesomely satisfying meal! Yet another successful, delicious meal from “365”!
★★★★★
Karen says
September 22, 2018 at 7:28 pmGood point!
Karen Johnson says
September 18, 2018 at 1:19 pmI only have frozen green beans. Should I could the other items 2 minutes then release and add my green beans and cook for 0 minutes?
Karen says
September 19, 2018 at 2:37 pmThat would probably work!
stacey says
August 26, 2018 at 3:34 pmcan fresh asaparagus be used instead of green beans? would the timing be the same? wanted to try it this week..looks so yummy thank you for sharing!
Karen says
August 27, 2018 at 11:08 amasparagus will get totally mushy. I would add it later after everything else has cooked. and just let it kind of heat through with the hot food.
Kristan says
August 25, 2018 at 11:45 pmI made this for dinner and it turned out great! Will be putting this into my rotation. I can’t wait to eat leftovers tomorrow.
★★★★★
Karen says
August 27, 2018 at 11:09 amI love leftovers!
Sandy says
August 23, 2018 at 5:14 pmCould I substitute sliced carrots for the green beans?
Karen says
August 24, 2018 at 2:25 pmyes or baby carrots would work
Pat says
August 20, 2018 at 4:00 pmWould sweet green pepper work instead of the beans? If so, would i have to change the time?
Karen says
August 21, 2018 at 1:04 pmGreen pepper would turn to mush. Peppers are just too tender.
Suzy says
August 14, 2018 at 12:23 pmThis was AWESOME and so easy! We used beef polska kielbasa (I used the Saute function first using a teensy bit of light olive oil because that’s how we like it when we make another sausage and potato dish; may add an onion next time while sauteing just for fun although the flavor is already so good); and omitted the mushrooms because they’re not my thing. Tried it with frozen green beans the 2nd time and yeah, they came out too mushy (but still tasty!) so will try cooking separately next time or adding at the end under pressure for 0 minutes as one reviewer suggested.
Thank you so much for this recipe!
★★★★★
Brittany says
August 8, 2018 at 6:15 pmSo I tried this recipe tonight (first instant pot use). Is it normal to take 20 minutes to build pressure or am I doing something wrong. I followed the recipe to a T.
Karen says
August 11, 2018 at 2:08 pmThat seems quite long. The fuller the pot the longer it will take to build pressure. One way you can speed up this process is by warming up any liquid you add to the pot.
Terry S. says
August 8, 2018 at 3:39 pmI’ve made this twice as written and my whole family loves it. I used the prewashed bags of green beans and pre sliced mushrooms. Very easy to make after work. Thank you!
★★★★★
Karen says
August 11, 2018 at 2:09 pmGREAT idea! That would make prep super fast.
Kim Wylie says
August 4, 2018 at 8:05 pmI used pre-bagged fresh green beans and the 3 minutes turned them to mush. I didn’t add potatoes because I didn’t have any. Would either of these things change the cook time?
★★★
Karen says
August 6, 2018 at 8:53 pmWere they super skinny beans?
Kim says
August 12, 2018 at 6:45 pmNo. But made it again and cooked the sausage and potatoes for 2 minutes. Then added the green beans for 0 minutes under pressure. Was perfect! No mushy green beans.
Jeri says
July 30, 2018 at 7:45 pmSo delicious and easy—3 minutes and it’s ready is crazy… I used turkey kielbasa as andouille and Cajun spices are too spicy for me.
★★★★★
Beth says
July 24, 2018 at 6:11 pmWould it be bad to not use the butter? Or is there something you could sub for it?
Karen says
July 24, 2018 at 8:09 pmYou could substitute with olive oil.
ken says

July 14, 2018 at 7:01 pmI just made this recipe using kielbasa and Perfect Pinch Italian seasonings. It was delicious! It is definitely a keeper! This seems to be a wonderful winter dish–warm and tasty on a cold night, and everything in the same pot!

July 10, 2018 at 9:56 pmWe really liked this dish. I used what I had at home so we had Aidell’s Italian sausage with Italian seasonings subbed for those you used. Will try it again using other sausage flavors. Loved how quick it went together and used little electricity- we are on power restrictions because of the high heat in N. California. Perfect meal for the evening. Thanks!
