There's something undeniably comforting about a dish that combines hearty sausage with the vibrant flavors of sautéed peppers. The classic Italian dish, Sausage and Peppers, is not only a staple in Italian cuisine but also a beloved favorite for family dinners and summer barbecues alike.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy, your choice)
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and allow it to warm up for about a minute, ensuring that it is hot enough to sizzle when you add the sausages.
Add the Italian sausages to the skillet. Cook them for approximately 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set them aside on a plate to rest.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Add the minced garlic and Italian seasoning, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
Slice the cooked sausages into bite-sized pieces and return them to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir everything together and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
