Ingredients

• 4 links Italian sausages (mild or spicy)
• 2 large Yellow onions
• 2 medium Bell peppers (red or yellow)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Whole-grain mustard
• 4 pieces Crusty sandwich rolls
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium heat, about 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the onions and bell peppers into thin strips.

Step 3

In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until softened and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

While the onions and peppers cook, prepare the sausages. Using a sharp knife, prick each sausage a few times to prevent bursting during cooking.

Step 5

Grill the sausages on the preheated grill for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Step 6

While the sausages are cooking, slice the sandwich rolls in half. Spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides of the rolls.

Step 7

Place the rolls butter-side down on the grill for 1-2 minutes or until toasted and lightly golden. Remove from grill.

Step 8

To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of whole-grain mustard on the bottom half of each roll.

Step 9

Top with a grilled sausage, a portion of the caramelized onions and peppers, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.

Step 10

Close the sandwiches with the top half of the rolls and serve immediately. Enjoy!
