Cuban Breakfast Sausage

Step 1

For a family of four I use two packages of Johnsonville Mild Italian sausage links. First, cut each link into 1/2 inch pieces. Heat a sauté pan on medium high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Step 2

Next, add the cut up pieces of Italian sausage and brown all over. Drain off any excess fat and then add the diced onions and bell peppers. When onions and peppers look translucent add the garlic and cook for another 2-4 minutes until garlic is fragrant. Deglaze the pan with the 1/3 cup of vino seco. Scrape up any bits while stirring and add 2 cans of Goya tomato sauce. Fill one can with water and add to sausage.

Step 3

Add salt, garlic powder and cumin to sauce and simmer covered on low for at least 30 minutes. The longer this dish simmers on low the better the flavors combine and taste unbelievably delicious! While the sausage is cooking I make some breakfast potatoes, scrambled eggs and toast to complete the meal.
