Sausages in the Skillet with Grapes

1. 1

   Pour the olive oil into the skillet, toss in the garlic cloves, and set it over low heat.

2. 2

   When the garlic is sizzling, lay in all the sausages in one layer, and cover the pan.

3. 3

   Cook the sausages slowly, turning and moving them around the skillet occasionally; after 10 minutes or so, sprinkle the peperoncino in between the sausages.

4. 4

   Continue low and slow cooking for 25 to 30 minutes in all, until the sausages are cooked through and nicely browned all over.

5. 5

   Remove the pan from the burner, tilt it, and carefully spoon out excess fat.

6. 6

   Set the skillet back over low heat, and scatter in the grapes.

7. 7

   Stir and tumble them in the pan bottom, moistening them with meat juices.

8. 8

   Cover, and cook for 10 minutes or so, until the grapes begin to soften, wrinkle, and release their own juices.

9. 9

   Remove the cover, turn the heat to high, and boil the pan juices to concentrate them to a syrupy consistency, stirring and turning the sausages and grapes frequently to glaze them.

10. 10

    To serve family-style: arrange the sausages on a warm platter, topped with the grapes and pan juices.

11. 11

    Or serve them right from the pan (cut in half, if large), spooning grapes and thickened juices over each portion.
