Marks Old Fashioned Sausage And Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Divide oil between 2 large skillets with lids; heat over medium heat.
• Divide garlic, onion and peppers between skillets and cook, stirring as needed, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add sausages, 4 to a skillet, and cook about 4 minutes more until sausages begin to brown.
• Add tomatoes, wine, oregano and a pinch of salt to pans.
• Cover, bring to simmer for about 25 minutes, until peppers are soft.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Place the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, and brown on all sides. Remove from skillet, and slice.
• Melt butter in the skillet. Stir in the yellow onion, red onion, and garlic, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in red bell pepper and green bell pepper. Season with basil, and oregano. Stir in white wine. Continue to cook and stir until peppers and onions are tender.
• Return sausage slices to skillet with the vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes, or until sausage is heated through.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spread sausage pieces into a baking dish.
• Bake sausage in preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion in oil until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Stir sausage with the onion. Pour tomato sauce over the sausage mixture; bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
• Stir bell pepper into the mixture to coat in tomato sauce; cook until the bell pepper is tender, about 20 minutes more.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until brown on both sides, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain.
• Keeping the pan over medium heat, add the peppers, onions, salt, and pepper and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the oregano, basil, and garlic and cook 2 more minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and stir. Add the Marsala wine, tomatoes, and chili flakes, if using. Stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
• Cut the sausages into 4 to 6 pieces each, about 1-inch cubes. Add the sausage back to the pan and stir to combine. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
• Serve in bowls. Or, if serving as a sandwich, split the rolls in half lengthwise. Hollow out the bread from the bottom side of each roll, being careful not to puncture the crust. Fill the bottom half of the roll with sausage mixture. Top and serve sandwiches immediately.

Steps:

• In a large skillet with a lid, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, and peppers, and cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sausages, and cook about 4 minutes more, until sausages begin to brown. Add the tomatoes, wine, oregano, and a large pinch of salt. Cover, bring to a simmer, and simmer gently about 25 minutes, until the peppers are very soft. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the onions on the prepared baking sheet and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and some salt and pepper. Spread the onions in an even layer and roast for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and push the onions over to one side.
• Toss the orange and green bell peppers in a medium bowl with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and some salt and pepper. Place the seasoned peppers in the center of the baking sheet. Place the sausages in the empty area next to the peppers, spacing them evenly apart.
• Roast until the onions are translucent and tender, the peppers are soft and charred in spots, and the sausage is completely cooked through, about 25 minutes. (For even cooking, turn the vegetables halfway through cooking.)
• Cut the sausages into bite-size pieces and divide evenly between four hoagie rolls. Top with the peppers and onions.

Steps:

• Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from heat source. Score the sausages in a few places on both sides, making sure not to cut all the way through. In a shallow baking dish or baking sheet, toss the sausages with the peppers, tomatoes, garlic, shallots and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and spread in an even layer.
• Broil until the sausage is cooked through and the peppers and tomatoes are nicely charred, 10 to 15 minutes. Rotate the pan and ingredients as needed so everything gets under the broiler. If everything is charring too quickly, cover the pan with foil. Serve immediately.
