Instructions
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of the olive oil in a wide pan over medium heat.

- Remove the sausage to a plate and set aside.
- Drizzle the remaining olive oil into the pan and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften.

- Add the yellow, green, and red bell pepper pieces, followed by the tomato paste and diced tomatoes.
- Pour in the red wine, stirring the bottom and sides, to deglaze the pan.
