Ingredients
For the Sausage with Peppers and Onions
- 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 5-6 Italian sausage links
- 3 bell peppers, assorted colors, cut into strips
- 1 large onion, cut into strips

- 1/2 cup cabernet sauvignon (or beef broth)
- 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
- 1/4- 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages. Brown on all sides (they will not be cooked through), turning occasionally. Remove the sausages to a plate and set them aside.

- Add the red wine and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer until the wine reduces by about half, 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the Italian seasoning and crushed red pepper flakes. Place the sausages back into the skillet. Cover and cook until the sausages are cooked through and the peppers and onions are softened, about 10 minutes.
- Serve as is, on Hoagie rolls, or over pasta!
