Ingredients:
Makes eight servings
3 tablespoons olive oil
2-1/2 pounds (eight 5-ounce links) sweet Italian sausage
2 yellow onions, thinly-sliced
2 green bell peppers, cored, seeded, thinly-sliced
2 teaspoons Emeril’s Original Essence
8 hero buns, split lengthwise, warmed
1 jar Emeril’s Home Style Marinara Pasta Sauce, warmed
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium to low heat.
Add sausage links and turn frequently until browned and cooked through, 22-25 minutes.
Remove from heat, cut into 1/2-inch slices and cover to keep warm. Add remaining oil to 12-inch sauté pan over medium high heat. Once hot, add onions, bell peppers and Essence. Stir often and cook until onions and peppers are wilted and lightly caramelized, about 12 minutes.
Place warmed buns on baking sheet and spread inside of each with 1 tablespoon mayonnaise. Divide sliced sausage, onions and peppers among bottom halves of buns. Top with about 1/4 cup warmed pasta sauce. Top each sandwich with 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1 tablespoon Parmesan.
Broil sandwiches until cheese is melted, 3-1/2 to 5 minutes. Remove from oven, cut in half and serve with remaining sauce on side.
