Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
Cooking Spray
1 onion, diced
1 cup sliced mushrooms

Add olive oil and a generous amount of cooking spray to a large sauté pan over medium high heat.
Sauté the onions, mushrooms and red bell pepper for 6-7 minutes or until starting to caramelize.
Add the thyme, crushed red pepper flakes, ground black pepper and garlic. Mix well and sauté 1-2 more minutes.
Stir in the chicken sausage and water and sauté for 3-4 more minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan to mix in any brown bits on the bottom.
