Turkey Sausage and Pepper Skillet image

This easy and flavorful skillet recipe is one you'll want to put in your regular rotation. It's healthier than using pork sausage and makes for a quick weeknight dinner, and works well for meal-prepping. I like to serve mine over steamed rice.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 sweet Italian turkey sausage links (such as Jennie-O®)
1 large red onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook turkey sausages until they begin to brown and firm up, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and let cool slightly before cutting into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices; they will not be completely cooked at this point.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet over high heat. Quickly stir-fry onion until it begins to brown, about 1 minute. Add peppers and continue cooking over high heat, stirring constantly, until peppers begin to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcrowd the skillet in order to get a nice char on the vegetables. Mix in garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Return sausage, and any accumulated juices, to the skillet. Season with crushed red pepper, salt and pepper and reduce heat to medium. Stir to combine and continue cooking until sausage is no longer pink in the center, about 2 minutes more.

The sausage was a little dry, but the peppers were delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would use a different type of sausage.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes, and it was much better. Next time, I'll also try using a different type of sausage.
