Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 1-pound bag sweet mini peppers
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 links (about 2 pounds) sweet or hot Italian sausage links

Steps:

  • Add peppers, olive oil, vinegar, sugar, granulated garlic, salt and pepper to a large skillet and toss to coat. Place the skillet over medium-high heat and saute the peppers until they start to get slightly tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Nestle in the sausages amongst the peppers and lower the heat to low, then cover and gently simmer until the sausages are about 145 degrees F, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the sausage from the skillet and grill until charred and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about 10 minutes. Place back in the skillet with the mini sweet peppers and serve.

SUNNY'S MONTE CRISTO BREAKFAST PLANK



Sunny's Monte Cristo Breakfast Plank image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 loaf white bread, unsliced
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon sriracha
4 large eggs, whisked
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons salted butter
1/4 cup raspberry jam
8 slices Gruyere cheese
5 ounces paper-thin slices deli baked honey ham
5 ounces paper-thin slices deli roasted turkey
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon grainy Dijon mustard
Powdered sugar, for dusting
Maple syrup, for drizzling or dunking

Steps:

  • For the bread: Using a serrated knife, make a rectangular block of the bread by slicing off the ends and leveling the top and bottom of the loaf. There should be no crust left. Slice the block in half lengthwise, making 2 planks.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the heavy cream, chili powder, sriracha, eggs, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Pour the mixture into a wide flat dish, large enough to dunk the bread. Carefully dip each plank in the egg mixture, coating all sides.
  • Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the bread planks and cook on all sides until the batter is set and the bread is light golden, 4 to 5 minutes on each large side, and another 2 minutes for each edge.
  • For the filling: While still on the griddle, spread the raspberry jam on the entire top of one plank. Top with 4 slices of Gruyere, then all of the ham and turkey, shredding the meat as you go. Then cover with the remaining 4 slices of Gruyere. Like Jeff Mauro says, "crust to crust is a must!" In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and mustard together. Spread this mixture on the top of the remaining plank and lay it, mayonnaise-side down, on the other topped plank. Put an overturned metal bowl over the sandwich and cook a few minutes more to melt the cheese.
  • For the finish: Carefully remove to a baking sheet and allow to cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar and use a serrated knife to cut 1 1/2-inch finger planks along the length. Serve with maple syrup to drizzle or dunk.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces egg pappardelle noodles
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 links spicy Italian sausage, casings removed, crumbled
Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated (shredded) Parmesan
2 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling water according to the package directions. Drain, reserving some of the cooking water.
  • Set a large pan with straight sides over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and sausage. Cook, breaking up the sausage, until brown, about 5 minutes, then season with salt and a few hefty grinds of coarse black pepper -- it's all about the pepper!
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the Parmesan cheese and eggs.
  • Add the drained pasta to the pan and swirl until it's mostly coated with the fat of the sausage. Remove the pan from the heat and add a spoonful or so of the pasta water along with the egg and cheese mixture. Toss rapidly to coat the pasta with the eggs and cheese. Continue to toss until the water evaporates a bit and creates a bit of a sauce. Add the parsley and toss again. Serve immediately.

1/2 cup soy sauce
