GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS

INGREDIENTS

4 Italian sausages (mild or hot, your choice)
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
1 large green bell pepper, sliced
1 large yellow onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional, for extra flavor)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Vegetables:

In a large bowl, combine the sliced peppers and onions. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly.
2. Grill the Sausages:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Place the sausages on the grill and cook for about 7-10 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the sausages are fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 160°F/71°C). Remove from the grill and set aside.
3. Grill the Peppers and Onions:

Place the prepared peppers and onions in a grill basket or on a grill-safe sheet of foil.
Grill for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender and slightly charred, and the onions are soft and caramelized.
4. Optional – Add Balsamic Vinegar:

For added flavor, drizzle the grilled peppers and onions with balsamic vinegar just before serving. This adds a tangy sweetness that complements the sausages perfectly.
5. Serve:

Serve the grilled sausages on a platter alongside the grilled peppers and onions.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with crusty bread or in a soft roll for an Italian sausage sandwich.
Pair with a side of crispy fries or roasted potatoes for a complete meal.
For a lightened-up option, serve the sausage and peppers over a bed of greens for a fresh salad.
Grilled Italian Sausage with Peppers and Onions is a deliciously simple dish that’s packed with flavor. The smoky, juicy sausages paired with sweet peppers and onions make for a satisfying meal that’s perfect for any occasion! Enjoy!
