Step 1
Uniformly chop 2 roma or plum tomatoes and set aside.
Step 2
Chop half a sweet onion into pieces of similar size to the tomatoes.
Step 3
Slice the soujouk into 1/4 inch pieces.
Step 4
In a large sautee pan add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and bring the heat up to medium or medium high.
Step 5
Sautee the soujouk until the sausage pieces start to take on some color (maybe 5 minutes at most) and get just a little crispy around the edges. Be careful not to overcook them because depending on the brand or how dry the soujouk is to start, it can overcook quickly.
Step 6
Add in the onions and mix well with the soujouk and let them cook for maybe a minute before adding the tomatoes. Stir everything together and let them cook together for a few minutes until the onions and tomatoes are soft.
Step 7
Add in the 1/2 cup of tomato sauce and a 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the pan and mix everything well.
Step 8
Simmer everything altogether for 8 – 12 minutes just to incorporate all of the flavors.
Step 9
When ready, serve the soujouk in two wide, shallow bowls. It’s ready to eat as is, but add-ons can really make the dish great.
Step 10
In order to really make the dish perfect, try adding a bit of creamy chipotle sauce for some smoky spiciness that works absurdly well in this dish. Use pita bread to dip into the sauce and to scoop up delicious pieces of sausage.
