GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

GRILLED SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Mix the balsamic vinegar, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil until emulsified. Add the red pepper, green pepper, serrano pepper, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and toss until well combined.
• Place the basket on a baking sheet and transfer the peppers and onions to the center, letting any extra marinade drip off. Place 3 links of sausage on either side of the veggies. Close and secure the basket.
• Place the grill basket on the grill and cook, flipping once, until the vegetables and sausages start to brown and caramelize and an instant read thermometer inserted into a sausage measures 160 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl. Open the hoagie rolls and brush the insides with the herb oil. Grill until toasted, about 1 minute.
• Remove to a platter and place 2 overlapping slices provolone on each roll (do not allow cheese to hang over the sides). Return the rolls to the grill, cover, and cook until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Remove to a platter.
• Remove the peppers and onions from the basket and slice thinly. Cut each link of sausage in half on a deep bias and place in a hoagie roll. Divide the peppers and onions among the rolls and spoon 2 tablespoons warm marinara on top. Serve the hoagies with the remaining marinara on the side for dipping.
