Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 Italian sausage links (hot or mild)
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 4 sub rolls
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for topping
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions

  1. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the Italian sausage links for about 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through. Alternatively, you can cook them on a stovetop skillet.
  2. While the sausages are grilling, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and peppers to the pan and sauté until they become tender and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Once the sausages are cooked, transfer them to a cutting board and let them rest for a few minutes. Then, slice them diagonally into bite-sized pieces.
  4. To assemble the sub sandwiches, spread a generous amount of marinara sauce on each sub roll. Place a portion of the sliced sausage, sautéed onions, and peppers on top. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the filling.
  5. Serve the sandwiches warm and enjoy!

Notes

Opt for high-quality Italian sausages with your preferred level of spiciness. Also look for fresh sub rolls that are soft and sturdy enough to hold the filling. Grilling the sausages adds a delicious smoky flavor, but you can also sauté them in a skillet if a grill is not available.

Feel free to add your favorite toppings such as sliced mushrooms, melted cheese, or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Enjoy!
