- 1 package Isernio’s Italian Chicken Sausages

Instructions
- Cook the Sausages: Bring a skillet of water large enough to immerse the sausages to a boil. Add the sausages, turn off the heat, cover, and let steep for 7 minutes. Drain the water.
- Grill the Sausages: Preheat the grill to medium heat. Grill the sausages for about 6–8 minutes, turning occasionally, until they’re golden brown and have nice grill marks.
- Sauté the Peppers & Onions: While the sausages are cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced peppers and onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 8–10 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.
- Place the sandwich rolls cut-side down on the grill for 1–2 minutes until lightly toasted.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Place a grilled sausage into each bun, top generously with the sautéed peppers and onions. Spoon on marinara sauce or serve it on the side for dipping. Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy!
