Description

A quick skillet dinner, ready in about 1/2 hour. This can be adjusted to your own liking. Add some mushrooms in place of some of the bell peppers, serve over your favorite low carb noodles/zoodles, or add more chicken stock and serve as a soup. Suitable for Atkins, Keto, LCHF, low carb, diabetic, low glycemic, gluten free, grain free, sugar free, nut free, coconut free, Paleo (substitute almond milk), low potassium.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 pound Mild Italian Sausage (I Used New York Style Sausage Company)
  • 8 ounces, weight Mixed Color Bell Peppers, Thin Strips (2 Medium Peppers)
  • 2-½ ounces, weight Red/Purple Onion, Thin Strips (3 Thin Slices)
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced Or Pressed
  • ½ teaspoons Salt (Omit If Not Using Low Sodium Broth)
  • ½ teaspoons Dried Oregano
  • ½ teaspoons Dried Basil
  • ¼ teaspoons Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper (optional)
  • ½ cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth (Or Omit Salt In Spice List)
  • 2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon Marsala Wine, Or White Wine (See Notes)
  • 1 Tablespoon Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Grated Parmesan Cheese And Chopped Parsley, For Garnish (optional)

Preparation

Heat oil in a large skillet. Brown sausage links on all sides, then reduce heat and cover pan. Continue cooking over low heat until sausage is fully cooked, turning occasionally.

While sausage cooks, slice bell peppers and onions, mince the garlic (or use a garlic press). Measure out spices.

When sausage is cooked, remove from skillet and set aside. Leaving any remaining oil in the pan, add peppers and onion. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until peppers are cooked through and both peppers and onions are starting to brown.

Add garlic and spices, cook one minute more. Add chicken stock to deglaze pan. Stir in tomato paste, wine and cream, and stir until well incorporated. Add sausage back to pan, mix everything together. Cover and heat on low just until sausage is hot, if needed.

Serve, garnished with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese or chopped parsley.

Serving ideas: Serve “as is” on a plate, over your favorite low carb noodles or rice substitute, or add more chicken stock and serve as a soup. Be sure to count any additional carbs. I serve mine over Zeroodle Premium Shiratake Fettuccine With Oat Fiber, available on Netrition.com or directly from Zeroodle.com. This is a zero net carb pasta substitute.

Notes:
• Don’t skip the Marsala! It adds a lot of flavor, and balances out the spices.
• I get no kickback for products used in my recipes. Brand names are included to assure more accurate nutritional estimates. Nutrition information is based on My Fitness Pal’s online recipe analyzer. The recipe is stored there and available to MFP users for logging in their food diaries. Sugar alcohols and liquid Sucralose are excluded from nutrition counts, as they are not absorbed by the body and rate zero on the glycemic index.
