1-First, in a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers and onions, then sauté until they’re tender and slightly caramelized, which takes about 10 to 12 minutes. If they start browning too fast, lower the heat a bit to keep things even.

2-Next, add the sliced sausage rounds and stir them in with the peppers and onions. Cook until the sausage turns golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes, letting those flavors mix. This step is where the dish really starts to come alive, especially if you’re using pre-cooked sausage for quicker results.

3-Then, stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning or herbs de Provence, salt, and pepper. Let it all cook for 1 to 2 minutes so the flavors meld together nicely. Finally, garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve it up hot, perhaps over steamed rice for a heartier meal.
