SAUSAGE AND SUMMER VEGETABLE SAUTé



Sausage and Summer Vegetable Sauté image

Provided by Maggie Ruggiero

Categories     Tomato     Sauté     Picnic     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Lunch     Sausage     Fennel     Corn     Summer     Gourmet     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 (5-to 6-ounces) fresh pork sausages
1/3 cup water
3/4 cup chopped sweet onion
1 medium fennel bulb, chopped
1 cup grape tomatoes (5 oz)
2 ears corn, kernels cut from cob
1/4 cup coarsely chopped dill

Steps:

  • Prick sausages a few times. Simmer with water in a 12-inch heavy skillet, covered, over medium heat 7 minutes. Uncover and cook, turning occasionally, until water has evaporated and sausages are well browned and cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes more. (You may need to add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, depending on sausages.) Transfer sausages to a plate and pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet if necessary.
  • Cook onion, fennel, and tomatoes with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in skillet over medium heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until onion and fennel are crisp-tender and tomatoes are soft and beginning to burst, about 7 minutes. Add corn and dill and sauté 2 minutes.
  • Slice sausages and serve with vegetables.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your sauté turns out perfectly.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your sauté the best flavor and texture. If you can, try to use organic vegetables whenever possible.
  • Cut your vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Use a large sauté pan: A large sauté pan will give your vegetables plenty of room to cook without overcrowding. This will help them brown evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will not cook evenly and they will release too much moisture, which will make them soggy.
  • Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of vegetables to cook, you may need to cook them in batches. This will ensure that they all cook evenly.
  • Season the vegetables well: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all classic seasonings that work well with sautéed vegetables. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender-crisp. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and lose their flavor.

Conclusion:

Sautéing is a quick and easy way to cook vegetables. It is a versatile cooking method that can be used to create a variety of dishes, from simple side dishes to main courses. By following these tips, you can make sure that your sautéed vegetables are always delicious and flavorful.
