2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 / 2 cup (120 ml) tomato sauce
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
4 Italian rolls (optional, for serving)

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the spicy beef sausages and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove sausages from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the bell peppers and cook until they are just tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, and pepper.
3. Return the sausages to the skillet and simmer everything together for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. If desired, serve in Italian rolls for a delicious sandwich.
