My take on the traditional sausage and peppers dish is delicious, fresh and yes, the basil makes ALL the difference.
15 Minute Sausage and Peppers with Basil
Equipment
- Large skillet
Ingredients
- 1 large red onion
- 1 red pepper thinly sliced
- 1 yellow pepper thinly sliced
- 2-4 sliced chicken sausages
- 1/4 cup of basil
- 1 tablespoon Red Wine vinegar
- 1-2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/4-3/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Warm 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over high heat.
- Add 1 large thinly sliced red onion, 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper and 1 thinly sliced yellow pepper. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes, until charred and tender. Season with salt and pepper. Scooch peppers and onions the side and add a bit more oil to the empty part of the skillet.
- Add 2 to 4 (depending how many you want) 1/4-inch sliced chicken sausages (I used “bubbies chicken soup” sausages and OMG they’re AHH-MAZING) and saute until browned. Stir in 1/4 cup thinly sliced basil, a splash of red wine vinegar, and a big pinch of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.
- Divide between two plates and chow down!
