Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients needed for the recipe. Ensure the Italian sausages are thawed if they were frozen.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Italian Sausages

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage links and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Add Marinara Sauce

    In the same skillet, pour in the marinara sauce. Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat.

  3. 4

    Combine Sausages and Sauce

    Once the marinara sauce is simmering, return the cooked Italian sausages to the skillet. Cover the sausages with the marinara sauce and allow to simmer for about 5-10 minutes to heat through and meld the flavors.

  4. 5

    Add Mozzarella Cheese

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sausages and sauce. Cover the skillet and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the dish

    Once the cheese is melted, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve hot, either on its own or with crusty bread or pasta.
