Ingredients

8 Italian sausage links
1 (16 ounce) jar marinara sauce for dipping
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, sliced
1 goat horn pepper or other hot green chile, sliced
4 Italian-style hoagie buns, split lengthwise
1 (8 ounce) container mascarpone cheese, divided
¼ cup garlic basil spread, divided (see footnote for recipe link)
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add sausages and cook until no longer pink inside, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Place marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and keep warm until sandwiches are ready.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir onion, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, and goat horn pepper in the hot oil until onion softens and begins to turn golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove onion mixture to a plate and set aside.
Place sausages in the hot skillet and cook, turning frequently, until warmed through and browned all over, about 10 minutes.
Spread each hoagie bun with 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese and 1 tablespoon garlic basil spread. Place two sausages on top and spoon over the onion mixture. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Transfer the marinara sauce to small bowls for dipping.
