Sausage and Peppers

Italian Sausage and Peppers is a simple enough for quick weeknight dinners but delicious enough for epic parties, too! Juicy Italian sausages in a homemade tomato sauce with plenty of sliced peppers and onions is hearty, delicious, and easy.

Ingredients :
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 10 Italian sausage links
  • 1 large yellow onion peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 large green bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and thinly sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 can tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes optional
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 10 rolls split, for serving
  • shredded mozzarella cheese for serving, optional
Directions :
  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add oil and heat until shimmering. Add sausages and cook until browned on all sides (sausages will not be fully cooked), about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. To the skillet, add onions and peppers. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  3. Add back sausages and stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a simmer and cook until sausage is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 5 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve on rolls with shredded cheese if desired.
