Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by preparing the ingredients. Slice the jalapeños, chop the red onion, and crumble the Italian sausage into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the thick-cut bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving some bacon fat in the pan.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausage

    In the same skillet, add the crumbled Italian sausage and cook until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped red onion and sliced jalapeños to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic-infused olive oil.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    In a large baking dish, layer the cooked sausage mixture, crispy bacon, and prosciutto. Spread the apricot and roasted poblano sauce over the top.

  6. 6

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the dish.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the assembled dish for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
