Spicy Sausage and Pepper Skillet with Rice

Ingredients

• 1¼ lb Spicy Italian sausage
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Yellow onion
• 1 Red bell pepper
• 1 Green bell pepper
• 2 clove Garlic
• 14½ oz Canned diced tomatoes
• ½ cup Chicken broth
• 1 tsp Dried oregano
• ½ tsp Salt
• ¼ tsp Black pepper
• 3 cup Cooked white rice
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (optional)

Steps

1. Remove sausage from casings (if applicable) and crumble. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and set sausage aside.
2. While sausage cooks, dice the onion and bell peppers. Mince the garlic.
3. Add onion and bell peppers to the same skillet. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Return cooked sausage to the skillet. Add diced tomatoes (undrained), chicken broth, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.
5. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing flavors to meld and vegetables to finish cooking.
6. Serve the spicy sausage and pepper mixture hot over cooked white rice. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
