Local fairs in these parts are famous for sausage and pepper sandwiches. I came up with my own recipe so our friends and family can savor the tasty treats year-round.
Ingredients:
5 hungarian wax peppers
1 large sweet yellow pepper
1 large sweet red pepper
2 medium sweet onions, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) italian diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
1/2 cup water
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
8 johnsonville® mild italian sausage links links (4 ounces each)
8 hoagie buns, split
Directions:
1. Seed wax peppers if desired; cut wax and bell peppers into 2-in. pieces. In a large skillet, saute peppers and onions in oil until tender. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste, water, garlic, bay leaves and seasonings; heat through.
2. Meanwhile, in another large skillet, brown sausages. Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with pepper mixture.
3. Cover and bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Discard bay leaves. Serve on buns. Yield: 8 servings.
