Chicken And Three Peppers Sausage Recipes

CHICKEN, SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook sausage links until browned and oil begins to render, about 3 minutes per side. While sausages are cooking, pierce them lightly here and there with the tip of a sharp knife so some fats and juices are released. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• When sausages are cool enough to handle, cut them into serving pieces, about 2-inch slices. Transfer back to pan along with any accumulated juices from the cutting board.
• Cut two slashes down to the bone on the skin side of each chicken thigh.
• Depending on the size of the peppers, halve or quarter them and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the sliced red and yellow onions and potato chunks. Add chicken thighs and sausage pieces with pan juices.
• Season with kosher salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs. Drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• Mix with your hands until all ingredients are coated in oil, 3 or 4 minutes. Transfer to large, heavy-duty roasting pan. Evenly space the chicken thighs skin side up. Position potatoes near the top.
• Place in preheated oven until chicken is cooked through and everything is caramelized, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with chopped fresh Italian parsley, if desired.

CHICKEN AND THREE-PEPPERS SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Saute peppers in butter until soft. Drain on paper towels.
• Chill processor bowl and metal blade in refrigerator.
• Remove all gristle, fat and cartilage from chilled chicken and cut the meat into large chunks. Place in processor bowl with parsley and chop chicken into coarse pieces. Then process until smooth. You may need to do this in several batches.
• With motor running slowly add egg whites and then cream.
• Place chicken in bowl and stir in peppers.
• Using sausage stuffer, stuff into casings, tie off at 2- to 3-inch intervals.
• Poach in salted water for 15 minutes.

CHICKEN, SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage until golden, about 2 minutes. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then toss with the flour in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook until browned but not cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Add the onion, peppers, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and cook 3 minutes. Add the wine, scraping up any browned bits; bring to a boil and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add the broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the sausage and chicken are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken, sausage and vegetables to a platter with a slotted spoon. Increase the heat to high and stir the parsley and cherry peppers and their liquid into the skillet; boil until reduced by one-third, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Pour the sauce over the chicken mixture.

CHICKEN SAUSAGES WITH PEPPERS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, saute onion and peppers in oil until crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in sausages; heat through.

ONE-PAN CHICKEN, SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into a nonstick skillet. Break up sausage into small pieces and add to the pan; add potato pieces sporadically, flesh-side down. Place chicken pieces throughout the pan, smooth side down. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Sprinkle over Italian herbs. Scatter over sliced onion and bell peppers. Sear over high heat until sausage starts to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-high, cover, and cook until potatoes are just tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth and cook until reduced by at least half.
• Stir and squeeze over lemon juice. Taste and adjust if needed. Serve over toasted bread and top with parsley.
