Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Italian Sausage and Peppers Skillet.
Step 1
Start by slicing each sausage link into five bite-sized pieces, perfect for a hearty dish.
Step 2
In a large skillet, warm up a tablespoon of garlic-flavored olive oil over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the sausage pieces and cook them until they’re beautifully browned, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Step 4
If there’s any excess grease, simply drain it from the skillet to keep your dish light and flavorful.
Step 5
Next, add in the vibrant sliced bell peppers, the drained diced tomatoes, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning for that authentic taste.
Step 6
Drizzle the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil over the top, then reduce the heat to medium-low.
Step 7
Cover the skillet and let everything simmer together for about 15 minutes, allowing those delicious flavors to meld.
Step 8
After the first simmer, stir in the onion wedges and chopped garlic, then generously sprinkle the mixture with grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 9
Cover the skillet again and let it simmer for another 15 minutes, filling your kitchen with mouthwatering aromas.
Step 10
Once that time is up, give everything a good stir and top it off with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Step 11
Cover the skillet one last time and cook for an additional five minutes, or until the cheese is perfectly melted and bubbly.
Step 12
Finally, remove the skillet from the heat and serve this delightful dish hot, ready to be enjoyed by family and friends.
Step 13
