Juicy Italian sausage, sweet bell peppers and onion on a skewer, air-fried until charred and caramelized — all the flavor of a street-fair sausage and peppers, no grill needed. The air fryer crisps the edges while keeping the sausage juicy.

Ingredients
Instructions
Season
Cut the sausages into thick slices. Toss them with the peppers and onion, the olive oil, salt and pepper.
Skewer
Thread the sausage, peppers and onion alternately onto skewers that fit your basket.
Air fry
Air fry at 380°F for about 18–20 minutes, turning halfway, until the sausage is cooked through (160°F) and the veggies are charred.
- Cut everything a similar size so it cooks evenly.
- Soak wooden skewers first, or use metal.
- A little balsamic drizzle at the end is delicious.
