    Italian Sausage Stew


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 tablespoons olive
    1 to 1 1/2 pounds fresh Italian sausage links (hot or mild), sliced into 1-inch pieces
    1 large onion, coarsely chopped
    1 green bell pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
    1 sweet red bell pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
    1 sweet yellow or orange bell pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
    3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    4 cups fresh tomatoes, peeled and chopped into small pieces, or 1 28-ounce can Italian plum tomatoes (with juice), chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
    1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    12 ounces fusilli (corkscrew) or farfalle (bow tie) pasta, cooked Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated

    Recipe



    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, onion, and peppers. Cook, turning often, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender-crisp, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic during last 2 minutes of cooking. If the sausage produces an excessive amount of fat, pour off all but 2 tablespoons.
    Add the tomatoes, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover the skillet tightly with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until the sausage is thoroughly cooked and the vegetables are tender.

    Serve over pasta and top with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serves 4.
