Notes
- For this recipe, I recommend purchasing Italian sausage that is fresh and uncooked. If making pre-cooked sausage, the cooking time will likely be shorter. If using frozen Italian sausage, place it in the fridge to thaw overnight before cooking.
- When frying Italian sausage on the stove, add sausages and water to the skillet at the same time.
- If desired, lightly brush or spray baked Italian sausages with a bit of olive oil.
- Check Italian sausage links for doneness with a meat thermometer to be sure they've reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees F / 71 degrees C.
- Storage - keep in an airtight container inside the fridge for 3 days.
