Sausage Sandwiches

One of the simplest weeknight dinners I have ever made is also the one meal that my boyfriend has ever truly expressed any excitement over. My boyfriend, I may have stated in an earlier post, is a guy and, therefore, he does not gush (I gush about anything and everything, so it is amazing to me when he does not have an opinion on absolutely everything!).

This meal, though was totally different. It's quick, simple, and involves very little skill in the kitchen.

You will need:

A few bell peppers 

(I like the yellow and orange ones, they're sweeter)

One yellow onion

One package of chicken sausages 

(Not all sausages are created equal - I buy the Al Fresco garlic and/or the sweet Italian sausages)

Rolls, not hot dog buns

You will need two skillets going at once, which is the only tricky part if you're a beginner.

Start by cutting your chicken sausages in half the long way and cook them in one of the skillets - you may need a little vegetable oil so they don't stick. Cook until golden, flipping half way through so that they are browned on both sides.

While those heat on a low setting, cut the peppers into thin strips. 

Next, peel the skin off of the onion and cut it in half cross-wise so you get half-moons, not rings. Slice the onion into thin strips as well.

Place the peppers and the onions in the other skillet with a little bit of vegetable oil. Sautee until they are soft and slightly golden.

Serve with rolls and whatever condiments you like (we like spicy brown mustard).

This is also great tailgate or football party food.

Happy eating!
