Here’s the Quick Take recipe I prepared today on WKYT-TV’s 27 Newsfirst at Noon. My cooking segment airs between 12:35 and 12:40 p.m. Fridays on WKYT, then becomes available on Kentucky.com at 1 p.m.
Sausage and peppers
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound Italian turkey sausage
2 medium onions, sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 small red bell peppers, seeded and sliced ¼ inch thick
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2⁄3 cup dry white wine, or chicken broth
6 sprigs thyme
Couscous, cooked according to package directions
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, turning once, until it starts to brown, 5 minutes. Add onions, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring for 4 minutes. Add bell peppers and garlic, and cook until they are just soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in wine or broth and thyme. Transfer skillet to oven. Roast until sausage is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Spoon sausage, vegetables and pan juices over couscous.
