Description
This Italian Sausage in Air Fryer is the fastest and easiest way to cook sausage. They come out crispy and delicious and go great on a bun or skip the carbs and wrap them in lettuce. YUM!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package of Italian Sausage (4 to 5 sausages), mild or spicy
- 1 bell pepper, any color, cut into slices
- 1/2 a yellow onion, cut into slices
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Optional: brioche hot dog buns or hoagie rolls for the sausage
Instructions
- Begin by preheating the air fryer to 350 degrees.
- Once preheated, add in the peppers and onion. Sprinkle with salt and onion powder and give them a quick toss.
- Place the Italian Sausages over the top of the peppers and onions. Air fry for 13 minutes.
- Flip half way through.
- Check sausage internal temperature being extremely careful when you poke through the skin. ***Hot juices can shoot out. ***If temperature does not read 165 degrees, continue to cook in 2 minutes increments until it does. The sausages I cooked were very large and took 18 minutes total.
- Once they are cooked, allow them to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Top with peppers and onions and your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
Be very careful when poking the sausage with a thermometer as hot juice will shoot out* You need an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
