Italian Sausage with Peppers and Onions

ADVERTISEMENT

Heat a large skillet or pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through (about 12-15 minutes). Remove the sausages from the pan and set aside to rest. Once cooled slightly, slice them into 1-inch pieces.
Sauté the Peppers and Onions:
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sliced bell peppers and onions, and sauté over medium heat until they begin to soften and caramelize, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Deglaze and Combine:
Pour in the chicken broth (or white wine) to deglaze the pan, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom.
Stir in the oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Combine Sausage with Peppers and Onions:
Add the sliced sausages back to the pan and stir everything together.
Let everything simmer together for another 5-7 minutes so the flavors meld and the sausages are heated through.
Serve:
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, if desired. Serve hot with crusty bread, over pasta, or in hoagie rolls for a classic sausage sandwich.
Tips:
For extra flavor: You can grill the sausages instead of cooking them in the pan, then slice and add them to the peppers and onions.
Spicy option: Use spicy Italian sausages or add more red pepper flakes for extra heat.
Serve as a sandwich: For a great Italian sausage sandwich, serve the mixture in a toasted hoagie bun with a slice of provolone or mozzarella cheese.
Enjoy this hearty and flavorful Italian sausage dish!
