Sausage and Peppers


This is a really easy dish that is really tasty. I love to eat this with brown rice.



  • 1/2 yellow onion
  • 2 chicken, turkey or beef sausage (if you can get an interesting fresh sausage that is great! I get mine from Whole Foods Market's meat department. I really love the chipotle cherry chicken sausage for this dish.) Italian can be the next best choice if you can't get a hold of fresh uncooked sausage.
  • 1 red, orange or yellow bell pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves very thinly sliced or minced
  • sea salt and cayenne pepper
  • 2 Tb olive oil
Place sausage into a pan and broil in the oven until brown on each side will be about 85% cooked. Let cool a bit.

Slice onion and bell pepper into about 1-2 inches long and 1/4 inch wide strips. Sautee onions first with olive oil. Then slice semi-cooked sausage into diagonal circles. Add sausage and garlic to pan. Season with sea salt and cayenne. Cook till onion is a bit transparent and sausage is cooked thoroughly.
