How To Make italian sausage and peppers with ziti
-
1Prick the sausage all over with a fork, then place in a large skillet over low heat, and brown on all sides, cooking until tender. Remove from skillet, and slice links into 1" pieces. (I like to cut them in a diagonal...it's pretty. Ha!)
-
2Melt butter and olive oil in the skillet on medium heat. 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, oregano, salt & pepper. Stir in crushed tomatoes and wine (both are optional). Continue to cook and stir until peppers and onions are tender.
-
3Return sausage slices to skillet with the vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes, or until sausage is heated through.
-
4Serve over pasta, polenta or on Italian rolls for sandwiches (our favorite.)
