SAUSAGE AND BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat approximately 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan.
• Brown the sausage in the oil until you get a nice color on the outside and you no longer see any"pink".

• Keep the heat going on the pan and add onions and peppers (do not add any additional oil).
• Cook the onions and peppers approximately 5 minutes or until onions start to become translucent.
• During this time, slice the sausage down the middle, do not cut all the way through, just enough so you can open the sausage and"fan" them out.
• Add salt and pepper over the onion/pepper mixture and turn heat down to simmer.
• Place sausage on top of onions and peppers and cover.
• Simmer for approximately 15 minutes or until sausage is cooked through.
• Serve on Italian Bread.
