Skillet-Grilled Italian Sausage with Peppers and Onions
  1. 1

    Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, turning every few minutes, until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 10 minutes. Move the sausage to a plate, leaving the drippings in the skillet.

  2. 2

    In the same skillet, cook and stir the onions and bell pepper until browned and tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer them to the plate with the sausage.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
