Ingredients

  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips

  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips

  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips

  • 1 small white onion, sliced into petals

  • 1 small red onion, sliced into petals

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 5 (4 ounce) links hot Italian sausage links

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Combine bell peppers and onions in a large bowl. Add olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper; stir well to coat. Poke 4 holes in each sausage using a toothpick; this will help to prevent them from exploding on the grill.

  3. Place vegetables in a grill basket and cook on preheated grill for 2 minutes. Add sausage directly to the grate and grill for 4 minutes. Flip sausage over, stir vegetables, and grill for 4 minutes more.

Cook’s Note

You can also serve the grilled sausages in hot dog buns and finely chop the veggies once grilled as a "relish." I like to add a squirt of mustard when I serve them this way.
