10 Minute Chicken Sausage Meals

Whether you prefer them over mashed potatoes or in a sub roll, sausage, peppers and onions are delicious together.

There's so many different flavors of chicken sausages. Some of my favorites are the Italian style or the balsamic and kale chicken sausages. Pick your flavor and get to work on these 10 minute chicken sausage dinners.

I love how quick and easy these meals come together. The chicken sausages require barely any cook time and are the perfect counterpart to basic meal essentials. The bangers and mash are perfect for when you made a few too many mashed potatoes over the weekend and the sub roll and salad come together in minutes.

• 50g mixed bell peppers, sliced into 1" chunks

• 50g onions, sliced into 1" chunks

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1/4-1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth

Directions:

1. Heat olive oil over medium in a medium sauté pan.

2. Add in peppers and onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

3. Add in chicken sausage and garlic and toss to combine until sausage is heated through and garlic is fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

4. Pour in chicken broth. Cover and simmer for about 5 minutes or until chicken broth has reduced slightly.

5. Turn the oven on to broil.

6. Slice open the sub roll, spray with non stick olive oil spray and place under the broiler until it just starts to toast.

7. Line the roll with provolone cheese, top with sausage pepper and onion mixture and pop back under the broiler for an additional minute or until the cheese melts and the bread starts to brown.

8. Serve alongside a fresh cold garden salad.
