How To Make sausage and peppers

  • Step 1
    Heat the olive oil in a skillet on low. Add the sausages and cook until they are browned on the outside.
  • Step 2
    Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and cover with a lid. Let them cook for about 20 minutes until they are fully done. The water should be evaporated by that time.

    Remove the sausages and set aside.
  • Step 4
    Add the onion and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring often for 3 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Pinch the thyme leaves off the stems and discard stems. Do the same for the cilantro. You may want to chop the cilantro a little.
  • Step 6
    Add the cilantro, thyme, paprika salt and black pepper to the onion mixture and cook another minute.
  • Step 7
    Add the bell pepper and scallions. Stir to mix well. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the peppers are tender-crisp.
  • Step 8
    Slice the sausages , which should be cool by now, into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Step 9
    Add it to the pepper mixture. Stir to mix.
  • Step 10
    Cook for another 2 minutes or so until all is heated through.
