Ingredients
Instructions
- Stovetop: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the sausage links and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through, about 8-12 minutes.
- Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place the sausage links on a baking sheet. Roast until browned and cooked through, about 18-20 minutes.
Recipe Tips
For even browning, do not overcrowd the pan.
If using the oven, flipping the sausages halfway through ensures even cooking.
To make sausage crumbles, simply remove the casings before cooking and break up the meat in the pan.
