ITALIAN SAUSAGE SANDWICHES



Italian Sausage Sandwiches image

I've always made this with sweet Italian sausage, but have recently started doing it with Polish kielbasa as well. The directions are for Italian sausage and works just fine for either hot or sweet sausage; the Polish sausage doesn't require parboiling unless you just want to do so to reduce fat.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 -6 italian sweet sausage or 4 -6 hot Italian sausages
1 1/4 cups dry white wine or 1 1/4 cups water, divided
2 -4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 large onions, thinly sliced,lengthwise
2 -3 cloves garlic, minced
3 -4 large red bell peppers or 3 -4 large green bell peppers, seeded and thinly sliced
salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 -6 large crusty French rolls, split and warmed in oven
4 -12 slices provolone cheese, 1 to 2 slices per sandwich (desirable) (optional)
1 -2 cup fairly spicy marinara sauce (if not spicy, simmer with garlic and red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to taste)

Steps:

  • Poke the sausages all over with a fork, and place in a large lidded skillet with 1-2 Tsp extra virgin olive oil and 1 cup white wine or water, turn on heat to medium, and partially cover.
  • When pan begins to boil, turn sausages, and continue to simmer, turning several more times.
  • When liquid has evaporated, uncover, and continue cooking until sausages have browned to your taste.
  • Remove sausages from pan, and set on paper towels to drain.
  • Drain all grease from skillet, but do not wash or rinse it.
  • Add 1-2 Tsp more extra virgin olive oil to pan, and place on medium heat.
  • Add onions, and garlic, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Moisture from the onions should be enough to deglaze the pan, but you can add 1/4 cup white wine or water, if desired, to help with the job.
  • Stir the onions, scraping the bottom to pick up and dissolve browned bits from the sausage.
  • Continue cooking and tossing until onions are almost translucent.
  • Add peppers, and toss to combine with onions.
  • Turn up heat to medium-high, and continue to toss and cook until peppers are crisp-tender or to your taste.
  • Bury the sausage in the vegetables to reheat if necessary.
  • I usually serve on crusty French rolls or Bolillos, crusty Mexican rolls that have been heated in the oven.
  • Either one is better than your typical hoagie roll.
  • I split the warmed roll, brush on a little marinara sauce, split the sausages lengthwise, and pile on the onions and peppers.
  • If desired, line the roll with a slice of provolone and/or place one on top of the sausage and veggies.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups shredded cabbage
2 medium carrots, peeled and grated
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 pickled peppers, finely chopped, plus more for garnish

Put the sheet under the broiler. Cook until the cheese is bubbling and the sausages are warm, 1 to 2 minutes (make sure the rolls do not burn).

Tips:

  • When selecting Italian sausage, look for one that is made with high-quality pork and has a good balance of spices. If you can't find a good quality sausage at the store, you can make your own using ground pork, fennel seeds, garlic, and other spices.
  • To make sure the sausage is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also cook the sausage until it is no longer pink in the center.
  • For a more flavorful sandwich, grill or pan-fry the sausage instead of boiling it.
  • Be generous with the toppings! Add your favorite cheeses, vegetables, and sauces to create a sandwich that is uniquely yours.

Conclusion:

Italian sausage sandwiches are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual lunch. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be an Italian sausage sandwich that everyone will love.
