Sausage and peppers is a dish I truly never get tired of making. It has been a favorite in my house for years because it is quick to put together and always brings everyone to the table with a smile.

My best tip for this recipe is to slice your onions and peppers into even strips. This helps them soften at the same rate and ensures you get a little bit of everything in every single bite.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Italian sausages
  • 2 large bell peppers, sliced into strips
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the sausages to the pan and cook until they are browned on all sides and mostly cooked through, about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Remove the sausages from the pan and set them aside on a plate.

  4. 4

    Add the sliced peppers and onions to the same pan. Sauté them until they are soft and starting to caramelize.

  5. 5

    Stir in the minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

  6. 6

    Slice the cooked sausages into bite sized pieces and return them to the pan with the vegetables.

  7. 7

    Toss everything together and cook for 5 more minutes until the sausages are fully cooked through.

  8. 8

    Serve warm and enjoy.

💡 Tips

Serve this over a bed of pasta, fluffy rice, or inside a crusty hoagie roll. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
