FRIED ITALIAN SAUSAGE

Italian sausages, onion and peppers, it is a super-flavorful comfort meal, its an awesome meal for dinner, weekends, or game night party.



INGREDIENTS:

1.Olive oil

2.Fresh Sausages

3.White and Red onions

4.Bell peppers

5.Garlic cloves

6.Salt and pepper

7.Chicken broth

8.Fresh herbs

PREPARATION:

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the sausage, and cook it for about 2-3 minutes until all the sides are brown. At this point, the sausage won’t be cooked through but we’ll be cooking it some more later.
  3. Remove the sausages from the skillet, and place on a cutting board to slice them. Set aside.
  4. Sauté the onions and bell peppers in the same skillet. If you need to, add more olive oil or even butter or ghee before cooking the onions and bell peppers. Add garlic and season with salt and black pepper and red flakes or other spices of your preference. Sauté the veggies for about 3 minutes.
  5. Pour apple cider or red wine into the skillet with the peppers and onions, and scrape the bottom of the skillet to release all the brown bits. This is called deglazing. This part is very important because the brown bits add more flavour to this dish.
  6. Put the slices of sausage back into the skillet, and reduce the heat to medium. Cover the pan and simmer for 10 minutes. Then, uncover the skillet, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook for 3 more minutes or just until the liquid is evaporated and the sausage is cooked completely. You can use a meat thermometer to check on the doneness of the meat.
  7. Before serving, top with freshly chopped parsley and basil.
