Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 links Italian sausages (mild or spicy)
- 2 large Yellow onions
- 2 medium Bell peppers (red or yellow)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Whole-grain mustard
- 4 pieces Crusty sandwich rolls
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium heat, about 375°F (190°C).
Slice the onions and bell peppers into thin strips.
In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until softened and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
While the onions and peppers cook, prepare the sausages. Using a sharp knife, prick each sausage a few times to prevent bursting during cooking.
Grill the sausages on the preheated grill for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
While the sausages are cooking, slice the sandwich rolls in half. Spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides of the rolls.
Place the rolls butter-side down on the grill for 1-2 minutes or until toasted and lightly golden. Remove from grill.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of whole-grain mustard on the bottom half of each roll.
Top with a grilled sausage, a portion of the caramelized onions and peppers, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
Close the sandwiches with the top half of the rolls and serve immediately. Enjoy!
