SAUSAGE AND PEPPER GRINDERS RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp. oil over medium-high. Add the sausages and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tsp. oil over medium-high. Add the onion, garlic, oregano and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the onion and garlic soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the sweet peppers and cook, stirring often, until they soften, about 4 minutes longer; season with salt and pepper. Add the sausage and cook, stirring often, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, add the cheese and stir until melted, about 1 minute.
• Spread 1/2 cup giardiniera on each roll bottom. Divide the sausage and vegetable mixture among the roll bottoms; add the roll tops.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add sausages and cook until no longer pink inside, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Place marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and keep warm until sandwiches are ready.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir onion, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, and goat horn pepper in the hot oil until onion softens and begins to turn golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove onion mixture to a plate and set aside.
• Place sausages in the hot skillet and cook, turning frequently, until warmed through and browned all over, about 10 minutes.
• Spread each hoagie bun with 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese and 1 tablespoon garlic basil spread. Place two sausages on top and spoon over the onion mixture. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Transfer the marinara sauce to small bowls for dipping.
