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.

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 bell peppers (any color, seeded and sliced)
2 yellow onions (peeled, halved, and sliced)
14 oz. smoked sausage (such as kielbasa, sliced diagonally into 1/2 inch pieces)
15 oz. canned diced tomatoes
kosher salt (to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper (more or less depending on spice preference)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped, plus more for serving)
cooked rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice, or other grain (for serving (optional))

Steps:

  • Melt butter (1 tablespoon) with olive oil (1 tablespoon) over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
  • Add peppers, onions, and sausage, with a pinch of salt. Stir to coat in oil and salt, then sauté for about 20 minutes, stirring only every 5 minutes or so in order to develop good color. It will seem like too much, but don't worry- the vegetables will cook down a lot.
  • Meanwhile, cook up rice/quinoa for serving, if necessary.
  • Once peppers and onions are softened and browned, add the water (1/2 cup) to the pot, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  • Add the honey (1 tablespoon), crushed red pepper (1/4 teaspoon), and canned diced tomatoes with their juices. Stir and turn heat to low. Continue cooking until some of the liquid has evaporated and you are left with a thick sauce.
  • Turn off heat and stir in cilantro (2 tablespoons). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve over cooked rice or other grain or grain substitute, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
