Why is this a Foodgasm?  Ohhhh sooo many reasons.  First since this pork is marinated in fresh pineapple, Thai green curry paste and lime juice the flavors marry the meat.  It is sweet, a little spicy, savory and ohhhh so juicy!  Top it off with a Balsamic glaze and you got some over the top sweet, sour and spicy action making your taste buds dance like it's 1999.

Spicy Italian Sausage with Caramelized Onion, Fennel, and Basil in a White Wine Reduction

While I write this blog, I am actually eating this Foodgasmic creation....really helps for inspiration!  I have never cooked with fresh fennel before (aka anise) and I just knew I had to pair it with Italian sausage!  This was easy, quick and a true foodgasm. About 25 mins to Delicious town!  All aboard!

Why this is a Foodgasm:
Wine and porkfat together make magic!  Then add the unique flavor of fennel and the sweetness of caramelized onions, well you got an orgy of fabulous flavors!

What you need:
3 HOT (or sweet if you prefer) Italian Sausage links
1/2 bulb of fennel (cored)
1 large onion (slices)
1 orange bell pepper (slices)
2 tbsp EVOO
1/2 cup white wine
5 Large Basil Leaves
Salt and Pepper to taste

How to make it:
In a frying pan on Medium-High heat add EVOO and fry sausage, once the outside is browned add the onion, bell pepper and fennel slices. Saute until onions are a golden caramelized color (about 10 mins). Move to Medium-Low heat, add white wine and Basil....just take a whif.  It smells soooooo good!  Let all the sausage dripping and wine intermingle into a delicious sauce and let it reduce for about 5 mins. Serve over your pasta of choice, sprinkle with parmasean and ENJOY!!
