Begin by slicing the beef sausage into even rounds, about ½ inch thick, for consistent cooking.
Slice the onion and bell peppers into thin strips, and mince the garlic.
If using optional add-ins like cherry tomatoes or fresh herbs, have them washed and prepped beforehand.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced beef sausage in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove the sausage and set it aside on a plate.
Pro Tip: Avoid overcrowding the pan, as it may prevent the sausage from browning properly. Cook in batches if needed.

In the same skillet, add the onions and bell peppers. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and the onions turn slightly caramelized.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Return the seared beef sausage to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables.
If using cherry tomatoes, add them now and let them soften for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle in any desired spices (paprika, oregano, or chili flakes) and toss everything to coat evenly.
Optional Step: Add ½ cup of broth, tomato sauce, or white wine to the skillet for a saucier dish. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley or grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Serve the beef sausage mixture as is or over a bed of rice, pasta, or with crusty bread on the side.
Pro Tip: This dish reheats beautifully, making it perfect for meal prep or leftovers. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
