A delightful twist on the classic sausage and peppers dish, perfect for a hearty meal.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the Italian sausage. Cook until browned on all sides.
Browning the sausage enhances its flavor and adds a nice texture to the dish.
Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Add them to the skillet with the sausage and cook until the vegetables are tender.
Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed tomatoes, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and sugar. Pour this mixture into the skillet.
Mixing the sauce ingredients beforehand ensures an even distribution of flavors.
Cover the skillet and let the mixture simmer on low heat for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the skillet.
If a thicker sauce is desired, mix the cornstarch with water in a small bowl and stir it into the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Add the cornstarch mixture gradually to avoid over-thickening the sauce.
Serve the sausage and peppers over cooked pasta or rice, and enjoy your meal.
Garnish with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese for an extra touch.
