Sausage & Peppers over Polenta

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 1.25 lb Italian sausage
• 3 Bell peppers
• 1 Onion
• 1 cup Polenta
• 1 cup Marinara sauce
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1/4 cup Basil

Steps

1. Slice the peppers and onion into thick strips so they hold up to a long simmer.
2. Brown the sausages in olive oil in a large skillet, about 4 minutes per side, until well colored.
3. Add the peppers and onion to the pan; cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and sweet at the edges.
4. Pour in the marinara, cover, and simmer 10 minutes until the sausages are cooked through.
5. Meanwhile, bring 4 cups of salted water to a rolling boil and whisk in the polenta in a slow stream to avoid lumps.
6. Reduce to low and stir often for 20 minutes, until thick enough that the spoon leaves a trail.
7. Spoon the polenta into wide bowls.
8. Top with the sausage, peppers, and pan sauce; tear the basil over everything.
