Mince the garlic cloves and set everything aside. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Cook the Sausages<\/h3>\n<p>Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Once heated, add the sausages. Cook them for about 7-10 minutes, rotating occasionally, until they&#8217;re browned on all sides and cooked through. Once done, remove the sausages from the skillet and allow them to rest on a plate.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Saut\u00e9 the Vegetables<\/h3>\n<p>In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onions, cooking them for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften. Next, add the sliced bell peppers and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the peppers start to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, just until fragrant.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Combine with Diced Tomatoes<\/h3>\n<p>Pour in the drained diced tomatoes, oregano, and basil into the skillet. Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you&#8217;re using them. Stir everything well to combine.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5: Simmer<\/h3>\n<p>Slice the sausages into bite-sized pieces and return them to the skillet. Lower the heat and let everything simmer together for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 6: Garnish and Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Remove from heat and sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the dish. Serve hot, with your choice of a hearty grain like quinoa, rice, or with crusty whole-grain bread to soak up the delicious sauce.<\/p>\n<h2>Nutritional Information<\/h2>\n<p>This recipe serves about four portions, with each serving approximately containing the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Calories: 350<\/li>\n<li>Protein: 20g<\/li>\n<li>Carbohydrates: 18g<\/li>\n<li>Fats: 22g<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Preparation Time<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Total Time: 40 minutes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This Sausage and Peppers recipe strikes the perfect balance between wholesome ingredients and mouthwatering flavors.
