- 4 links Italian sausage (casing in, pierced with a fork)
- 3 large bell peppers (red and yellow)
- 1 small onion (cut into chunks)
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 cloves garlic (lightly smashed, skin on)
- 1 sprig rosemary
- parsley (chopped)
- 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Wash the bell peppers, remove the seeds, and slice them into strips about 1.5 inches wide.
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages, whole garlic cloves, and rosemary sprig. Let everything cook until the sausages are nicely browned on all sides.
Add the sliced peppers and onion. Season with salt and pepper, pour in the white wine, and let it bubble for 1–2 minutes.
Cover the pan, and let everything simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Stir occasionally, and if it looks dry, splash in a bit of water.
When the peppers are soft and the sausages fully cooked, remove the garlic and rosemary. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm.
