Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's ready to cook the sausages and vegetable medley.
- Wash the red peppers and arugula thoroughly.
- Slice the red peppers into long strips.
- Peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Place the Italian sausages on the grill, turning occasionally, until they are fully cooked and have nice grill marks. This should take about 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of the sausages. Ensure that the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- While the sausages are grilling, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced red peppers and onions to the skillet, sautéing them with a dash of salt. Cook until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of vinegar and 3 tablespoons of honey until well combined.
- Pour the glaze over the sautéed peppers and onions, stirring well to coat the vegetables evenly. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors, then remove from heat.
- Arrange the arugula on a large serving platter or individual plates.
- Place the grilled Italian sausages on top of the arugula.
- Spoon the glazed peppers and onions over the sausages, allowing the glaze to drizzle over everything.
- Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy this flavorful and vibrant dish as the perfect summer meal or a hearty dinner option.
Tips:
- Use a grill pan or outdoor grill to achieve those beautiful char marks on your sausages.
- Slice the peppers and onions uniformly to ensure even cooking.
- Choose a high-quality Italian sausage for the best flavor.
- Make sure the arugula is fresh and crisp for a delightful contrast to the cooked vegetables and sausage.
- Adjust the amount of honey and vinegar in the glaze to suit your taste preferences.
