Ingredients:
  • 1 T. olive oil
  • 1 lb. fresh Italian sausage links, sweet (mild) or hot
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 T. olive or other vegetable oil
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 T. chopped fresh basil or 1/2 tsp. dried basil
  • 4 French-style or hoagie rolls, split and toasted

How to prepare:
 
Brown sausages, turning once or twice, in a large skillet over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Add water and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until almost cooked through, about 10 minutes. Drain sausages on paper towels.

If no oil or liquid remains in skillet, add up to 1 T. oil. Increase heat to medium-high and add bell peppers, onion, oregano and basil. Cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Return sausage to skillet and heat through.

To serve, hollow out bottoms of rolls and place 1 sausage link in each depression. Top each with an equal amount of the vegetable mixture and serve with roasted potatoe wedges.  Enjoy!
