Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 links sweet and spicy Italian sausage
- 1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 to 4 fresh sage leaves, sliced, or chopped fresh thyme to taste
- 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Belgian waffles or pancakes, for serving
- Warm maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage links and allow them to cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Remove to a plate and set aside. Add the onions to the skillet and cook until soft and slightly caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes. While the onions are cooking, cut the sausages into slices about 1/2-inch thick. Add the sausage and sage to the skillet and cook everything together, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is cooked through and crispy around the edges, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the slices of apples and cook them only until they begin to soften but still retain their shape, 4 to 5 minutes. Season everything with a good pinch of salt and pepper and serve over Belgian waffles or pancakes with a good drizzle of warm maple syrup.
- NotesI usually use Granny Smith apples for this dish, but you can use any that you have locally in season. You can also try a mix of textures and flavors, tart and sweet, crispy and soft, from a local orchard or farmers' market: Believe me, it will be amazing!
