Ingredients

• 4 pieces hot link sausages
• 4 pieces hoagie rolls (or sandwich buns)
• 2 medium yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 4 pieces provolone cheese slices
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 0.25 cup pickled jalapeño slices
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the yellow onions into thin rings.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and butter. Once melted, add the sliced onions, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Remove the onions from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

Using the same skillet, add the hot link sausages and cook them over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through. If preferred, you can grill the sausages instead.

Step 4

While the sausages are cooking, toast the hoagie rolls or sandwich buns. Slice them open and place them cut-side down on a hot grill or skillet for 2-3 minutes, until lightly toasted.

Step 5

Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted hoagie roll or sandwich bun. Follow with 1/2 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.

Step 6

Place a cooked hot link sausage on each roll. Top with a slice of provolone cheese, a generous portion of caramelized onions, and a few pickled jalapeño slices.

Step 7

Close the sandwich with the top half of the roll. Serve immediately, optionally with a side of chips or a fresh salad.
