Sausage, Peppers and Onions Ingredients:

1 package of Italian sausage links (sweet, hot or mild) 2 tablespoons olive oil 3 bell peppers of another color (yellow, orange or red), sliced into strips 2-3 inches long 1 tablespoon garlic 1 large sweet or yellow onion, sliced into 1/4-inch half-moons 1 24-ounce jar of spaghetti sauce (more if you like it saucy) 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) Mozzarella cheese Salt to taste

Directions:

Brown the sausages. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large pan that has a lid. When the oil is hot, add the sausages and brown them slowly. If they sizzle and crackle too much, turn the heat down. You want a gentle browning, not a sear. Cook for several minutes, turning them occasionally so they brown on all sides. When the sausages are browned, remove from the pan and set aside. Sauté the onions, peppers, and garlic. Increase the heat to high and add the onions and peppers. Toss so they get coated with the oil in the pan and sear them as well as you can, stirring every so often. Once the onions and peppers soften, sprinkle some salt on them. Once you get some blackening from a good sear on the onions and peppers, add the garlic, and cook for one more minute. Simmer all the ingredients. Add the spaghetti sauce, oregano and red pepper flakes (if using) and stir well to combine. Add the sausages back to the pan and bring to a simmer. Then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer until the peppers are soft and the sausages are cooked through, about 20 minutes. Load it up on a hoagie roll and top with mozzarella cheese.
