Share:
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound Italian sausage links
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 onion sliced lengthwise
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 large bell peppers green, red, or orange, sliced lengthwise
- ⅓ cup white wine or beer
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes optional
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown sausages on all sides. Add water, cover, and simmer 10-12 minutes.
- Set sausages aside. Discard any remaining water.
- Add butter, onions, and Italian seasoning to the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring until onions are slightly softened. Add peppers and cook 2 minutes more.
- Add wine, tomatoes (if using), garlic, and sausage. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until peppers are tender and sausages reach 160°F*.
- If desired, top with a sprinkle of fresh basil or parsley.
Notes
- Tomatoes: These are optional, but make this dish saucy—perfect for spooning over pasta or sopping up sauce with crusty bread.
- Temperature: *Uncooked sausages that contain ground beef, pork, lamb, or veal have a safe cooking temperature of 160°F. Uncooked sausages that contain ground turkey and chicken must be cooked to 165°F. Use a meat thermometer or a digital instant-read thermometer to check. When taking the temperature, the sausage can spurt hot fat, so be cautious.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop until heated through.
