PARADE | September 2002 Yield: makes 4 servings | |
2 tablespoons | butter |
2 tablespoons | olive oil |
8 ounces | sweet Italian sausage, casings removed |
1 cup | diced, (1/2-inch) eggplant |
1 cup | diced, (1/2-inch) zucchini |
1 cup | diced, (1/2-inch) red or green bell pepper |
1/4 cup | chopped onion |
2 cloves | garlic, minced |
1 can (28 ounces) | Italian plum tomatoes, drained and chopped |
2 tablespoons | chopped fresh parsley |
2 tablespoons | chopped fresh basil leaves |
Cayenne, to taste | |
black pepper, alternative | |
2 ounces | grated mozzarella cheese |
1. Melt the butter with the oil in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Add the sausage meat and cook for 10 minutes, breaking up the meat with a spoon. Remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon; reserve.
2. To the same pot, add the eggplant, zucchini, bell pepper, onion and garlic. Stirring occasionally, cook until softened, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the reserved sausage, the tomatoes, parsley, basil and cayenne. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Spoon the mixture into an 8x9-inch, oven-to-table baking dish to fit and sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese. Bake in a 350°F preheated oven until the cheese melts, about 15 to 20 minutes.
