Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the red bell peppers and garlic. Set them aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the house made sausage and cook until browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped garlic and red bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the cooked sausage to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the red sauce and mix well. Let simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese and Basil

    Stir in the fresh basil leaves and half of the mozzarella cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Transfer the mixture to a baking dish, top with the remaining mozzarella cheese, and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Serve hot.
