Meal: Grilled Sausages, Peppers and Onions
Servings: 4
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch rings
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch rings
1 medium onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
4 sweet or hot Italian sausages (about 12 ounces total)
2 individual hero, hoagie, or grinder rolls (each about 7 inches long by 3 inches wide)
Directions
1. Prepare gill.
2. In a small bowl drizzle 2 teaspoons oil over pepper rings, tossing to coat well.
3. Secure each slice of onion horizontally with a wooden pick (to prevent separation into rings) and brush with remaining teaspoon oil.
4. Grill peppers and onions on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 3 minutes on each side, or until tender. (Alternatively, peppers and onions may be grilled in batches in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
5. Transfer peppers and onions to a bowl, discarding wooden picks, and toss with Worcestershire sauce and vinegar.
7. Prick sausages with a fork and grill, turning them, until golden and just cooked through (about 160 F. on a instant-read thermometer), 10 to 15 minutes.
8. Halve sausages lengthwise and rolls horizontally and grill, cut sides down, 1 minute, or until sausages are cooked through but still juicy and rolls are toasted lightly.
9. Divide peppers and onions between rolls and top with sausages.
