Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 12 oz spicy Italian sausage, casing removed and crumbled, cooking for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Step 2: Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 medium thinly sliced red onion to the skillet, sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant and the onion softens.
Step 3: Stir in 1 large sliced red bell pepper, 1 large sliced yellow bell pepper, and 1 medium diced zucchini, cooking for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
Step 4: Pour in 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp sriracha sauce, stirring well to coat all ingredients. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and glazes the sausage and vegetables.
Step 5: Remove from heat and fold in 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves. Season with 1/4 tsp black pepper and salt to taste before serving.
