Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I like to heat a bit of olive oil in my large stock pot over medium heat. Then, I add the Italian sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. The smell of sizzling sausage wafting through my kitchen is simply irresistible! Once the sausage is browned and cooked through, I scoop it out and let it rest, but keep all those flavorful drippings in the pot. This is where the magic happens!
