Best Drunken Sausages And Peppers With Hero Rolls Recipes

ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND PEPPER HEROES

Steps:

• Grill sausages over hot coals, turning occasionally, until done, about 10 minutes total.
• Remove from grill and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, in large skillet, sauté peppers in the olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until vegetables are lightly browned, 10-15 minutes.
• Pepper mixture can be made ahead; reheat to serve or serve at room temperature.
• Place sausage links in hero rolls, generously add sautéed pepper mixture to each sandwich.

GRILLED SAUSAGE AND PEPPER HEROES

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a small jar or other lidded container. Shake to combine. Soak 2 long wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes (alternatively, use metal skewers).
• Preheat a small grill to medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Brush the peppers and onions with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Stick the skewers through the sausage ring at a perpendicular angle to each other (in an X). Place the sausage ring in the middle of the grill and cook until the underside is charred, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Flip the sausage ring with tongs and a spatula and arrange the peppers around the ring. Grill the sausage until browned and crispy in places and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Add the onion rings to the empty space on the grill. Cook the peppers and onions until crisp-tender and charred on the edges, about 4 minutes per side (the peppers will come off first, since you put them on first). Transfer the vegetables to a cutting board as they finish cooking.
• Brush the cut sides of the rolls with olive oil and grill, cut-side down, until toasted, about 1 minute. Flip and lay 2 slices of cheese on the grilled cut sides of each roll and cook until the cheese just begins to melt, moving as needed so they don't burn, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the skewers from the sausage, cut into serving pieces 4 to 5 inches long and divide evenly among the rolls. Cut the peppers into strips and separate the onions into rings. Pile on top of the sausage. Drizzle the heroes with the remaining dressing and serve immediately.

DRUNKEN SAUSAGES AND PEPPERS WITH HERO ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat a large, ovenproof, nonstick skillet (no plastic handles!) over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook them, turning once in a while, until they're nice and brown almost all over, about 10 minutes. (They'll curl up a little as they cook, so it'll be hard to brown them on all sides. Don't sweat it.) Poke each link 4 or 5 times with a fork as they cook to release some of their juices.
• Remove the sausages from the pan and set aside. Press the garlic into the juices in the pan, stir it around until you can smell it, and then add the peppers. Season them lightly with salt and red pepper, and cook about 8 minutes, tossing them around until they're wilted and starting to brown. Add the sausages to the pan.
• Pour the beer, bring it to a boil, and then put the pan in the oven. Cook until most of the liquid has evaporated (you'll want a little to spoon on the sandwiches), the peppers are tender, and the parts of the sausages poking up are browned, 25 to 30 minutes. You can make the sausages and peppers before people come over and then heat them over low heat half an hour beore you're ready to serve. Serve hot along with a basket or plate of hero rolls, split open and ready for stuffing.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Place the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, and brown on all sides. Remove from skillet, and slice.
• Melt butter in the skillet. Stir in the yellow onion, red onion, and garlic, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in red bell pepper and green bell pepper. Season with basil, and oregano. Stir in white wine. Continue to cook and stir until peppers and onions are tender.
• Return sausage slices to skillet with the vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes, or until sausage is heated through.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND PEPPER HEROS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook onion, bell peppers, garlic, salt, and pepper, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, about 15 minutes.
• While peppers cook, preheat broiler and prick sausages all over with a fork, then broil sausages on rack of a broiler pan 3 to 5 inches from heat, turning over once, until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Transfer sausages to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes, then halve lengthwise.
• Make 4 sandwiches using bread, pepper mixture, and sausages.
