Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons (45 ml / 1.5 fl oz) olive oil
  • 5 chicken sausage links (about 12 oz / 340g), sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small red onion, cut into large chunks
  • 1 small zucchini (about 6 oz / 170g), halved and sliced
  • 1 small yellow squash (about 6 oz / 170g), halved and sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, cut into large chunks
  • 1 small yellow bell pepper, cut into large chunks
  • 6 cremini mushrooms (about 4 oz / 115g), quartered
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5 g / 0.09 oz) Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon (1 g / 0.04 oz) red pepper flakes
  • Sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • For the best browning on your sausage and veggies, use a large skillet and avoid overcrowding. If needed, cook in two batches to ensure everything gets a perfect sear.
  • This skillet is perfect for meal prep. Cook a large batch and portion it into airtight containers. It reheats beautifully for quick lunches all week.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the sliced sausage, garlic, and onion.
  4. Sauté for about 10 minutes, until the sausage is beautifully browned and the onion has softened.
  5. Stir in the zucchini, yellow squash, bell peppers, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
  6. Continue to sauté for another 10-15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight bite.
  7. Taste the dish and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
  9. Don't be afraid to switch it up! This recipe works wonderfully with broccoli florets, asparagus, or even cubed sweet potatoes. Just be sure to adjust cooking times for heartier vegetables.
  10. Finish the dish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese to brighten up the flavors just before serving.
