Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces sausages (preferably pork or chicken)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 whole lime, sliced into wedges
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 servings rice or crusty bread (for serving)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat.
Add the sausages to the pan and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove the sausages from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the garlic, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper to the pan. Sauté for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper (if desired), salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes release their juices.
Pour in the coconut milk, stir well, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Slice the sausages into bite-sized pieces (or leave them whole, if preferred) and add them back into the pan.
Cover the pan and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sausages to fully cook through.
Remove from heat and sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the dish.
Serve hot with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Pair with rice or crusty bread to soak up the flavorful sauce.
