Sausage & Peppers

1. 1

   Toss the pepper strips in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle a little salt on them and place them in a pan under the broiler until they are tender and the skins start to blacken.

2. 2

   In a large skillet saute the onions and garlic in the remaining olive oil until soft.

3. 3

   Take the sausages and with your fingers, break them up in bite-sized chunks - you do not want to slice them because you want them to have a crumbly texture - and add them to the pan and cook until nicely browned.

4. 4

   Add the roasted peppers to the pan along with the chopped cherry peppers if you're going spicy.

5. 5

   Now add the tomato sauce and stir well.

6. 6

   Add some salt & pepper to your taste, and let the whole thing simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the thin liquids have evaporated and the whole thing has a nice, saucy texture.

7. 7

   Taste and season if needed.

8. 8

   This is wonderful served over pasta, but is also really good on polenta, pizza, or as a calzone stuffing.

9. 9

   Or you can just pile it in a bowl and eat away!

10. 10

    Grate some fresh Parmesan or Romano over it.

11. 11

    Pairs well with garlic bread and a hearty red wine.
