Carmen's Sausage Recipe
Ingredients
Hot Italian Sausage
Italian frying peppers
Italian hot peppers
Onions
Goya Adobo
Goya Sazon
Goya tomato sauce
Olive Oil
Red pepper flakes.
Salt
Pepper
Directions:
Place sausages in a pan of boiling water for about ten minutes. When done, cut them into pieces and set aside.
Saute the peppers, onions and garlic in a frying pan with olive oil. Toss back and forth so they get coated with the olive oil and garlic. Next, add the sausages and brown them in the mixture.
Add the Adobo, Sazon, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and the tomato sauce. Let simmer for 5-6 minutes.
When done to your liking, place on a plate and serve.
