Smoked Sausage, Peppers, and Onions Stir-Fry

Smoked Sausage, Peppers, and Onions Stir-Fry

 

This quick and easy stir-fry is a great way to let the natural flavors of the smoked sausage and fresh vegetables shine without needing extra seasoning.

 Ingredients

  2 lbs smoked sausage, sliced

  ½ sweet onion

  ½ red bell pepper

  ½ green bell pepper

  ½ yellow bell pepper

  ½ orange bell pepper

  1 tbsp bacon grease (or preferred cooking fat)

  Cooked rice for serving

 Instructions

 1. Prep the Pan: Heat your griddle or skillet over medium heat.

 2. Add Fat: Add a generous portion of bacon grease to the pan.

 3. Sauté Onions: Add the onions first, cooking them until they are wilted and slightly translucent.

 4. Brown Sausage: Add the sliced smoked sausage to the pan. Cook until you get a nice brown sear on both sides.

 5. Toss in Peppers: When the sausage is almost finished, add in all the bell peppers.

 6. Final Sauté: Stir everything together until the peppers are just slightly cooked. Keeping them al dente provides a nice crunch, but you can cook them longer if you prefer them softer.

 7. Serve: Serve hot over a bed of fluffy rice.

This recipe perfectly captures a style that avoids unnecessary traditional practices by focusing on simple, high-quality ingredients and effective heat management. Enjoy!
