Title: Italian Sausage Pizzaiola
Categories: Italian, Sausage, Sandwiches, Pizza
Yield: 4 Servings

1/4 c Onions; chopped
4 tb Fresh basil; chopped
6 Plum tomatoes; quartered
1/2 lb Mushrooms; sliced
Salt
Black pepper; freshly ground
4 tb Romano cheese; grated
1 Red bell pepper;
- roasted, skinned, chopped
1/2 ts Italian seasoning
1 lb Italian sweet sausage;
- skin removed
8 sm French sourdough rolls
- (4 lg)
2 ts Olive oil
6 oz Jar marinated artichokes
8 Kalamata olives;
- pitted & chopped
2 cl Garlic; chopped

Brown sausage slowly, rendering as much grease as possible.
Submerge sausage in boiling water for 10 to 15 seconds to allow
more grease to float away. Saute mushrooms, onions, red pepper,
artichoke hearts, olives, garlic in olive oil until crisp-tender,
about 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomatoes, Italian seasoning, basil, and
sausage. Reduce heat and simmer until it is of the right
consistency. Add salt & pepper to taste.

Meanwhile, cut tops off rolls and hollow them out. Then place in
350?F oven for a few minutes until crusts are crisp. Fill each
roll with sausage & vegetable mixture. Sprinkle Romano atop each
roll and place under broiler just until cheese starts to melt.
Serve this alongside a green salad with Italian dressing and a
glass of Bardolino or Chianti.

If you make your own Italian dressing, save the artichoke marinade
to mix into the dressing.

I disagree with boiling the sausage and discarding the grease, of
course. JW (Jim Weller)
