How to Make Sausages Bell Peppers

  1. Prick 1 lb of sausages in several places with a fork and simmer in a skillet with 2 cups of boiling salted water for 10 minutes.
  2. Drain the sausages and slice them lengthwise in half.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Brown the sausages and finish cooking them. Remove from the skillet and set aside to keep warm.
  4. Add 1 large onion, chopped, 2 bell peppers (any color), chopped, and 3 cloves garlic, minced, to the skillet.
  5. Cook the vegetables, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until softened.
  6. Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked to your liking.
  7. Stir in 1 (15 ounce) can of tomato sauce, return the sausages to the skillet, season generously with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through and combine flavors.
