Sausage and Peppers
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 sweet Italian sausage links (about 3 pounds)
- 8 garlic cloves, crushed and peeled
- 4 hot pickled cherry peppers, stemmed, halved, and seeded (leave some of the seeds in if you like the heat)
- 3 small onions, peeled, cut into wedges attached at the root end
- 1 pound mixed mushrooms, halved (button, cremini, shiitake)
- 3 red, yellow, or orange bell peppers, quartered, or cut into sixths if large
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sausage, then cover and cook, turning occasionally, to brown all sides, about 10 minutes in all.
- Uncover, add the crushed garlic and cherry peppers, cover, and cook until the sausages are cooked all the way through, about 10 minutes more.
- Remove sausages to a plate.
- Add the onion wedges and cover the skillet.
- Cook, tossing occasionally, until the onions begin to caramelize on the edges, about 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and bell peppers, season with the salt, stir, and cover.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until all of the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes more.
- Uncover, increase heat to get the pan juices simmering, and cook until the juices have reduced and glazed the vegetables, about 10 minutes.
- Return the sausages to the skillet.
- Cook and toss to heat the sausages through and combine flavors, about 3 minutes more.
