Ingredients
- 4 links Pork Sausages
- 4 pieces Low Carb Hot Dog Buns
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 large Yellow Onion
- 1 medium Bell Pepper (any color)
- 2 minced Garlic Cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 4 tablespoons Dijon Mustard (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, brush the outside of each sausage with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to prevent them from sticking to the grill.
Step 5
Place sausages on the preheated grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are fully cooked and have grill marks on all sides.
Step 6
While the sausages are grilling, open the low carb buns and place them slit side down on the grill for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to lightly toast them.
Step 7
Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
Step 8
To assemble, place a grilled sausage in each bun. Top with the sautéed onion and pepper mixture, and garnish with fresh parsley.
Step 9
Serve with dijon mustard on the side, if desired.
