Ingredients

  • 4 Italian sausages mild or spicy
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Cook the sausages for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers, onions, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Saute for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  • Slice the sausages and add them back to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
  • Serve the sausages with the peppers and onions.

Notes

Chef's Tip: Let the sausages brown undisturbed for a few minutes per side rather than moving them constantly - that's what builds the deep color and flavor. Keto Swap: none needed - naturally keto.
