Instructions
- 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- 2
Add the sausages and brown them on all sides, about 8 minutes. Take them out and set them aside.
- 3
Add the sliced onions and peppers to the skillet. Cook until soft and lightly charred, about 10 minutes.
- 4
Stir in the garlic. Cook for 1 minute more.
- 5
Put the sausages back into the skillet and cover it. Cook for another 8 to 10 minutes until cooked through.
- 6
Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
- 7
Cut open the sub rolls. Fill each roll with a sausage and a large scoop of peppers and onions.
Chef's tips
For classic boardwalk flavor, finish the sausages on a hot grill after simmering so the skins get nicely charred. Use red, green, and yellow peppers together for great color and sweet flavor.
Storage
Store sausage and pepper mixture refrigerated up to 3 days.
Reheating
Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Boiling the sausages in liquid until gray instead of browning them in hot oil
- •Crowding the skillet too full, which steams the peppers instead of charring them
