Author: Maggie @ Our Fine Day
Ingredients
  • 2 Tbsp cooking oil avocado or olive
  • 2 lbs Sweet Italian Sausages
  • 4 bell peppers
  • 2 onions
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 18 oz jars tomato sauce and/or diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 Tbsp Italian seasoning

Instructions
  1. Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in your Instant Pot (on saute) or in a pot on the stove on medium heat. Cut the sausages in 1/2 and the first batch to the pot. Brown on all sides, then remove from pan. Add the 2nd tbsp of oil and brown the 2nd batch.
  2. While meat is browning, slice the peppers, onions, and mince the garlic.
