🥘 Ingredients

11 items

• 4 Italian sausage links
• 2 Red bell peppers
• 2 Yellow bell peppers
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt

• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cups Mayonnaise

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

2. Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into strips and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

3. Drizzle the bell peppers with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and toss to coat evenly.

4. Roast the peppers in the oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

5. While the peppers are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

6. Cook the Italian sausages in the skillet, turning occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing them into halves lengthwise.

7. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt and black pepper to make the garlic mayo spread.

8. Slice the baguettes or sub rolls in half lengthwise and lightly toast them in the oven or a toaster.

9. Spread a layer of garlic mayo on the bottom half of each baguette or roll.

10. Layer the roasted bell pepper strips, sliced sausages, and a handful of baby arugula over the spread.

11. Close the sandwiches with the top halves of the baguettes or rolls. Cut in half, if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.
