Sausage Alfredo Stuffed Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Slice sausage into 3/4 inch slices.
• Cut onions and peppers in to thin strips (julienne slices).
• Mince 3 to 4 cloves of garlic or measure out 1 Tbsp of pre-minced garlic.
• Chop basil into small strips (about 1 inch in length).
• Prepare pasta based on packaged instructions.
• Fry sausage in oil over medium-high heat until all pieces have turned brown.
• Add peppers and onions, season with salt and pepper to taste, and fry with sausage for 2 minutes.
• Add garlic and fry for 1 more minute.
• Dust the mixture with 2 Tbsp of flour (this step is optional, and will create a thicker sauce) and stir for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
• Add chicken broth and stir mixture for about 30 seconds.
• Turn heat down to medium-low and add cream. Stir to combine.
• Slowly bring cream to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.
• Add Parmesan cheese and stir until cheese is melted into mixture.
• Garnish with fresh basil and serve over pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, mushrooms, garlic, and salt until onion is slightly translucent and softened, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Cook and stir sausage in a separate skillet over medium heat, breaking into crumbles, until browned, about 10 minutes. Add bacon, Neufchatel cheese, and sour cream; stir to combine. Add mushroom mixture to sausage mixture, reserving about 1/4 cup mushroom mixture. Season with garlic and herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
• Warm Alfredo sauce with the reserved mushroom mixture in a pan over medium-low heat, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stuff each bell pepper with sausage-mushroom mixture; place in the prepared baking dish. Top each bell pepper with Cheddar cheese; pour warmed Alfredo sauce over and around the bell peppers. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bell peppers are beginning to soften, about 30 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and bake until cheese is melted, 10 to 20 more minutes.
