Ingredients
Scale
- Italian Sausage (sweet, mild, or spicy)
- 2 Tart Apples (like Granny Smith)
- 1 Yellow Onion (or red onion)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary (or dried, if needed)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by dicing your onions and slicing your apples into wedges or cubes. If you’re using sausage links, slice them into rounds.
- Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, add your Italian sausage. Cook until nicely browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add Onions: Once the sausage is browned, throw in the diced onions and a pinch of salt. Sauté until the onions are soft and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
- Incorporate Apples and Rosemary: Stir in the apple slices and finely chopped rosemary. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the apples soften and caramelize.
- Season and Serve: Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed. Once everything is perfectly combined and fragrant, remove the skillet from heat.
Notes
Serve warm in bowls, garnished with fresh rosemary. Pairs well with crusty bread or quinoa.
