What sides to serve with the recipe for Italian sausages and peppers?
This hearty dish can be enjoyed alone, but can also be enjoyed with a salad. A simple green salad without an overwhelming dressing is best. The coleslaw also combines very well.
You can also serve it along with bread such as breadsticks, rolls, crispy artisanal bread, pita bread, garlic bread or hot dog buns. Use it as a filling in sandwiches, tortilla rolls and wraps.
Enjoy it with vegetables such as
mashed potatoes or mashed sweet potatoes or cauliflower puree.
You can even use it on stuffed peppers or stuffed potatoes

family really likes it with pasta. Any type will work fine. A healthier alternative to that would be zoodles (zucchini) and spaghetti squash.
Try it with soup. It tastes delicious with creamy soups.
Some other sides of filling are quinoa and rice.

Make it spicy – Add some jalapeños or other hotter peppers or red chili flakes for a nice spicy touch. You can also drizzle the finished dish with hot sauce.

Tips and techniques Store Bought
vs. Homemade Italian Seasoning: You can use either. It doesn’t affect the overall taste, whichever one you use.
Mix the peppers: I like to use a combination of colored peppers, but you can use any pepper of your choice
. Use fresh peppers
: Avoid using frozen peppers or vegetables, as they release a lot of water when they go through the cooking process. In addition, they lack the necessary flavor for this dish.
How to thicken sauce/sauce? The best way to thicken this dish is to let it cook longer. Sometimes letting it cool will thicken it too. If you want it very thick, simply cook the excess liquid on the stove.
How to dilute sauce/sauce? Simply add some extra broth or water until the desired consistency has been reached.
Cut the peppers and thick onions:
If you cut onions and peppers too thin, they will simply dissolve in the sauce and will not be a very prominent part of the dish as they should be
.
Adjust the amount of Italian seasoning: use more or less, depending on your preferences.
