Stacey's Stove ~ Sausage & Peppers

Sausage & Peppers

Sausage and peppers remind me of baseball. You cannot go to a Red Sox game without having a sausage and pepper sandwich. And you cannot have a sausage and pepper sandwich at a ball game without having a beer in the other hand.

Well since I was making these on a cold, snowy, Sunday afternoon, I decided to add the beer to the sausage and peppers recipe.

Here's what you'll need...

Olive Oil, Sausage, Peppers, Onions, Pasta Sauce, Beer, Crushed Garlic,

Red Pepper Flakes, Oregano, and Basil

Preheat oil over medium heat...

Add sausage links and cook until browned, turning often...

Meanwhile, slice peppers and onions....

Once sausage is browned, remove sausage from pan and set aside...

Add peppers, onions, and garlic to pan...

Cook until peppers and onion are tender...

Once sausage has rested (10 mins), slice into pieces.

(that's my tomato slicer thingy...I've never used it to slice tomatoes, but it's great for everything else!)

Add the sauce, beer, sausage, oregano, basil, red pepper and simmer, covered, for 20 - 30 minutes...

Serve on bulky rolls...Sprinkle with parmesan cheese...Enjoy!!

Leftovers are also great served with pasta!!!
