Sausage and Melrose Pepper Sandwich

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 pound Italian sausage (sweet or hot, depending on your preference)

• Around 12 Melrose peppers seeded (or more if preferred!)

• ¼ cup diced onions

• 4tbsp dry white wine

• 6 Turano French Rolls

‍

1. Brown the Sausage: In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage links and cook, turning occasionally,

2. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the Melrose peppers and onions to the same skillet. After 2 minutes, add the white wine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.

3. Simmer with Sausage: Cook until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Toast the Bread:  Toast the bread in the oven if desired

5. Assemble the Sandwiches: Fill each roll with a sausage link and a generous portion of the peppers. Serve immediately.

Tips and Variations

• Cheese:

Add a slice of provolone or mozzarella cheese on top of the sausage and peppers in the last few minutes of cooking to let it melt.

• Spice Level:

If you prefer a spicier sandwich, use hot Italian sausage and a pinch of red pepper flakes in the vegetable mixture.
