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.

GRILLED ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS

CHARRED PEPPER AND SAUSAGE HERO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly on a gas flame. Char on all sides until the skin burns. Refrigerate to cool quickly, 10 to 15 minutes. Place on a flat surface and open, seed, peel and discard the skin. (I use a kitchen towel to wipe the skin away. Don't rinse the peppers under water, as it washes away flavor.) Slice the peppers into 1/2-inch slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and the sugar. Set aside.
• Split the sausages lengthwise. In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Arrange the sausages cut-side down in a single layer in the oil. Sprinkle with salt. Cook, flipping once sausages with tongs, so each one browns hard on both sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the onions and fresh garlic with a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring from time to time with a wooden spoon, until the onions soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the peppers and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Add the vinegar, granulated garlic, oregano and some Parmesan and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning.
• While the onions are cooking, spread butter on the cut sides of the rolls, then sprinkle with some crushed red pepper flakes. Toast on a griddle over medium-low heat until lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Stuff the rolls with some of the pepper-onion mixture, then top with the sausages, some more pepper-onion mixture and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Serve.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND PEPPER HEROS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook onion, bell peppers, garlic, salt, and pepper, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, about 15 minutes.
• While peppers cook, preheat broiler and prick sausages all over with a fork, then broil sausages on rack of a broiler pan 3 to 5 inches from heat, turning over once, until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Transfer sausages to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes, then halve lengthwise.
• Make 4 sandwiches using bread, pepper mixture, and sausages.

GRILLED SAUSAGES, ONIONS AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium.)
• Meanwhile, toss peppers and onions with oil and sprinkle with salt. Lightly prick sausages all over so that they do not burst.
• Put peppers and onions in a grill basket or directly on the grill, turning occasionally until they are softened and dark at the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Move them to the side of the grill without coals.
• Place the sausages on the hot side of the grill, cover and cook, turning occasionally until they are cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer the peppers and onions to a platter and top with the sausages. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.
