Ingredients
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
5 sweet Italian sausages (1 pound)
1 small spanish onion cut in half and then cut into 1/4'' slices
S&P to taste
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 cup red wine
1 orange bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips
1 red (or green...depends on your taste) seeded and cut into strips
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 lb egg noodles

Directions
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook sausage for a total of 10 minutes...2.5 minutes on each side to brown evenly. Remove sausage to a cutting board to cool. Add the onions to the pan with S&P. Sweat for 5 minutes.

When you add the onions to the pan put a medium pot of water on high heat. Cook the onions for 5 minutes and then add the tomato paste and red wine.

Next add the peppers and fennel seeds to the pan. The water for the noodles should be boiling...add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions...should be about 11 minutes.

Cut the sausages into 1/2'' pieces and add back into the skillet and cover. Cook for 12 minutes. When the noodles are done, drain and then add to the skillet with the balsamic vinegar and combine.
