Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Slice the sausage into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic, chop the capers, and roughly chop the anchovies. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausage

    Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

  4. 4

    Add Garlic and Anchovies

    Add the minced garlic and anchovies to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and the anchovies have melted into the oil.

  5. 5

    Incorporate Capers and Chili Flakes

    Stir in the capers and spicy chili flakes. Cook for 1 minute to combine flavors.

  6. 6

    Add Tomato Sauce

    Pour in the tomato sauce, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir to combine and let simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  7. 7

    Finish and Serve

    Once the sauce has thickened slightly, remove from heat. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and serve hot, either on its own or over pasta.
