Ingredients
- 2 large yellow onions, cut into 1/2-inch wedges through the core
- 2 large red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch strips
- 2 large orange bell peppers, cored, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch strips
- 2 large poblano peppers, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
- 1 medium fennel bulb, halved, cored, and sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick
- 2 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed in your hands
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil, plus 2 tablespoon more for sausages
- 1 pound sweet Italian sausage
- 1 pound hot Italian sausage
- 1 pint red cherry tomatoes
- 1/3 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
- 1/2 cup julienned fresh basil leaves
- Freshly grated Parmesan cheese for serving
Instructions
1. To begin, preheat your oven to a toasty 400°F and arrange two racks evenly spaced inside.
2. Next, let’s prepare the vegetables. In a large shallow roasting pan, combine the onions, bell peppers, poblano peppers, fennel, garlic, oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated.
3. For the sausages, toss them with the remaining olive oil on a separate sheet pan, ensuring they’re spread out in a single layer.
4. Place both the vegetable-filled roasting pan and the sausage-laden sheet pan into the preheated oven. Let them roast for 20 minutes.
5. After the initial 20 minutes, it’s time to combine everything. Toss the vegetables and transfer the sausages to the roasting pan with the vegetables. Add the cherry tomatoes and pour in the white wine.
6. Roast the combined mixture for another 25 to 30 minutes, turning the sausages occasionally to ensure even browning. Keep an eye on the oven, and adjust the cooking time as needed until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
7. Once the Roasted Sausages, Peppers, and Onions are out of the oven, sprinkle the fresh basil over the top and give everything a gentle toss to incorporate the flavors. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Notes
Serve hot with freshly grated Parmesan cheese on the side. This dish pairs beautifully with polenta, pasta, or crusty bread.
