1
Prepare the Ingredients
Dice the bell pepper and onion into small, even pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.

2
Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the Italian sausage. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 7-10 minutes.
3
Sauté the Vegetables
Once the sausage is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the olive oil. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until softened.
4
Add Garlic and Seasoning
Stir in the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
5
Combine and Finish
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Mix well and cook for another 3-4 minutes to combine flavors.

6
Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the sausage and vegetable mixture before serving. Enjoy your side sausage dish warm.
