Smoked Sausage and Garlic Bread Appetizer
A perfect appetizer for a Tuscan meal.
Serves: 6
Cook Time: 15 Minutes
Ingredients
-
1 lb. Smithfield Smoked Sausage
-
3/4 loaf of Italian bread
-
1/2 cup olive oil
-
6 garlic cloves, minced
-
2 pinches kosher salt
-
4 tablespoons fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped
Steps
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the sausage into 1/2" slices and cut the bread (keeping the crusts on) into 1/2" cubes. Line a sheet tray with foil. Place sausage and bread on tray. Coat with olive oil and toss in garlic and salt. Spread out on sheet tray and toast in oven for 10-15 minutes until bread browns. You will need to stir a couple of times during bake time for thorough baking. Remove from oven and toss in fresh parsley. Serve warm with toothpicks so your guests can spear a piece of sausage and bread in each bite.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with whole grain mustard for an extra punch of flavor.
