Ingredients
  

  • 1-1.5 lb Italian sausage links sweet, mild, or hot
  • 3 bell peppers sliced into strips
  • 1 medium red onion sliced into wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar optional

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Large bowl
  • Tongs

Method
 

  1. Toss the peppers and onion with the oil, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F. Add the sausages and vegetables and cook 15 to 18 minutes, shaking twice, until the sausages reach 160°F and the peppers char at the edges.
  3. Slice the sausages, toss everything with the balsamic vinegar, and serve.

Notes

Prick the sausages once so they don't burst.
Serve on hoagie rolls with melted provolone, over polenta, or with cauliflower rice.
Hot honey drizzled after is the sleeper finish.
