📝 Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced into strips
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
• 1 large white onion, sliced into half-moons
• 12-13 ounce sausage links, sliced on a bias into rounds
• 8 cloves garlic, finely minced (or 1 tablespoon jarred minced garlic)
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning or herbs de provence
• Kosher salt & fresh ground black pepper, to taste
• Steamed white rice or rice of choice, for serving- optional

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers and onions and sauté until tender and lightly caramelized, about 10-12 minutes. If your mixture is browning too quickly, reduce the heat while sautéing.
2. 2Add the sausage rounds and stir well to combine with the peppers/onions. Continue cooking the mixture until the sausage achieves a golden brown color, about 3-4 minutes.
3. 3Next, add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning/herbs de provence, and salt/pepper- to taste and stir well to combine. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until everything melds nicely.
4. 4Garnish the dish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve the sausage and peppers immediately on top of steamed rice, if desired. Enjoy!
