Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Italian sausage links
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 3 medium Bell peppers (assorted colors)
- 8 ounces Baby bella mushrooms
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sausages to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside. Slice them into rounds once cooled slightly.
While the sausages cook, prepare the vegetables. Slice the onion into thin wedges, the bell peppers into strips, and the mushrooms into thick slices. Mince the garlic.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until they start to soften.
Add the bell peppers and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 5-6 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Return the sliced sausages to the skillet and mix them with the vegetables.
Season the dish with salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes (if using), and dried oregano. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Cook everything together for another 3-4 minutes, until the sausages are fully cooked and heated through.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese (if desired). Serve immediately.
