Ingredients

• 4 links sausages
• 4 hoagie rolls
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 medium yellow onion
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 medium bell peppers (any color)
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or provolone)
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the sausages for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until softened and caramelized.

Step 3

Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet with the onions. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the peppers are tender. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the hoagie rolls open lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Lightly toast them in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 5

Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise and 1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the inside of each toasted hoagie roll.

Step 6

Place one sausage in each roll. Top with the onion and pepper mixture, then sprinkle shredded cheese generously over the top.

Step 7

Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty sausage sandwich!
