Sausage and Pepper Medley! Bursting with flavor and quick to prepare.

Sausage

  • 8 links sweet sausage, 8 links spicy sausage
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

Veggies and spices

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups white onion, chopped
  • 1 each, green, yellow, red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 3 golden potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon ground peppercorn
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt

 

 

Preparation

  1. Boil golden potatoes – Put 6 golden potatoes into a pot.  Cover with water.  Bring to a boil.  Lower heat and simmer for about 5 minutes.  Do not boil until they are completely soft, as in an upcoming step, we will also sauté them.
  2. Cook sausage – Begin by simmering water in skillet.  Add sausage.  Simmer at about 400°F.  After 10 minutes, cut links in half.  Wait another 5 minutes, then drain water and add 1/3 cup olive oil.  Leave in medium heat until golden brown (about 10 minutes).  Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature is 165 degrees before serving. 
  3. Prep veggies – While you wait for sausage to cook to a nice golden brown color, start chopping and slicing the veggies.
  4. Sauté – Add in garlic, onion, peppers, potatoes, peppercorn and salt.  Then stir to coat them in hot oil and diffuse their own flavors.  Cover and heat at 350°F for 10 minutes.

Serves 4 to 6

Enjoy!
