Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large pan. When heated, add the sausage and cook on medium heat, until all sides are browned. About 7 minutes or so.  Remove from pan, set aside and let sit for at least 5 minutes. 
  • Add the peppers and onions to the pan. Cook until they are softened - about 5 minutes. 
  • Add the oregano, basil, and garlic. Mix thoroughly and cook until fragrant - about a minute or two. 
  • While the herbs cook, cut the sausages into small pieces - about an inch or so wide.
  • Add the tomato paste to the vegetables and spices and mix thoroughly. 
  • Once the paste is mixed in, return the sausages to the pan of vegetables along with the diced tomatoes, white wine, and red pepper flakes (if using). 
  • Bring to a slight boil, lower the heat and cook on low for about 15 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken. 
  • Serve hot (rolls optional).  Top with Parmesan cheese if desired.
