Slice the sausage links into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sliced onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth, mixing well to combine.
Return the browned sausage to the skillet, then stir in the capers (if using), salt, and black pepper.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top before serving.
Serve hot over cooked pasta or with a side of crusty bread.
