A Jacques Pépin classic appetizer: quick and easy sausage bites in a delicious pomegranate sauce
Author: Marilena Leavitt
Recipe type: Appetizer
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients
½ cup fresh pomegranate juice
1 TBSP. ketchup
few dashes Tabasco hot pepper sauce
8 oz. all-natural, beef sausage, fully cooked
Instructions
Combine the pomegranate juice, the ketchup, and a few good dashes of Tabasco sauce in a medium skillet. Bring to a boil and cook the mixture for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it gets slightly reduced and syrupy.
Cut the sausage into ½-inch-thick slices. Add the sausage slices to a hot skillet with some olive oil, sauté briefly on both sides and then add them to the reduced sauce.
Cook over high heat, turning the slices occasionally, until the mixture reduces almost (but not) completely and coats well the sausage slices (2 to 3 minutes).
Serve them in a small bowl with toothpicks with some French Baguette on the side or as part of a charcuterie board.
