Follow The Directions

01

Step

0 mins

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

02

Step

15 mins

Roast red, yellow, and orange bell peppers on the preheated grill until blackened on all sides, about 15 minutes. Turn peppers as they blacken. Transfer peppers to a large resealable plastic bag and close the bag; set peppers aside until cool. Strip off and discard the skins, remove stems and seeds, and dice the peppers.

03

Step

16 mins

Cook sausages on the grill until browned and no longer pink inside, about 8 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a sausage should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

04

Step

5 mins

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook onion until tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add diced peppers to the onion mixture; cook and stir until heated through.

05

Step

0 mins

Slice cooked sausages on the diagonal into bite-size pieces and stir into the onion and peppers.

06

Step

10 mins

Raise heat to medium-high and stir in red wine and oregano. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring often, until the red wine has reduced by one third, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the sausages over wood chips. Serve over your favorite pasta or polenta for a complete and comforting meal.
If you don't have a grill, the peppers can be roasted in a 450°F (230°C) oven until blackened, about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally.
