Olive oil, as needed
1 pound spicy Italian sausage, casing removed
1 large onion, chopped

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a deep iron skillet or Dutch oven, sauté the sausage and vegetables in the olive oil until brown, breaking up the sausage as it cooks.
