How to Make Crock Pot Hot And Spicy Sausage
- Brown 1 lb Italian sausage (removed from casings) in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- Transfer the browned sausage to your 6-quart slow cooker.
- Add 1 large onion, chopped; 1 green bell pepper, chopped; and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the slow cooker.
- Pour in 24 oz (2 jars) your favorite pasta sauce (marinara or spicy arrabbiata recommended).
- Stir in 1/4 cup pesto (store-bought or homemade).
- Cook on low for 5-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, or until the sausage is cooked through and the flavors have melded.
- Serve immediately over your favorite pasta, on toasted hoagie rolls, or with crusty bread for dipping. Garnish with fresh parsley or Parmesan cheese (optional).
