Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all the ingredients. Chop the fresh rosemary finely and set aside. If using whole fennel sausage, remove the casing. Cut the fresh mozzarella into bite-sized cubes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the fennel sausage. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until fully cooked and browned.

  2. 3

    Combine with Rosemary

    Once the sausage is cooked, add the chopped rosemary to the skillet. Stir well, allowing the rosemary to infuse its flavor into the sausage for about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add Mozzarella

    Reduce the heat to low and add the fresh mozzarella cubes to the skillet. Stir gently to combine, cooking until the mozzarella starts to melt, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
