How to Make One Pot Spicy Sausage And Lentils
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 pound of Italian sausages (removed from casings, or use pre-sliced sausages) and cook for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown, breaking them up with a spoon as they cook.
- Remove sausages from the pot and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 medium carrot (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced) to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened and lightly browned.
- Return the sausages to the pot. Add 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1 cup green lentils (rinsed), 4 cups vegetable or chicken stock, and 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained).
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 40-45 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Stir occasionally.
- If the mixture becomes too thick, add a little water, 1/4 cup at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Remove the bay leaf. Discard or chop finely and stir back into the dish if desired.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot, garnished with 1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley.
