When Chef Carol walked around with her tasting schedule signup sheet for this dish, we responded with our usual refrain, “If it’s got a layer of cheese, sign us up, please!” (We say this so often we’ve thought about making shirts.) Lucky for us, the Cheesy Chicken Sausage Skillet really lived up to its name. Chewy Israeli couscous, chicken sausage, and savory veggies were covered with a literal blanket of crispy, bubbly cheese, thus making our hearts swoon and our taste buds do a little cha cha. Are you ready to get on the cheese train??

Instructions

Step 1
1

Adjust rack to top position and preheat broiler to high or oven to 500 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Core, deseed, and medium dice bell pepper into ½-inch pieces. Halve, peel, and small dice onion. Peel and finely chop garlic.

Step 2
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium ovenproof pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until beginning to brown and soften, 4-5 minutes. Add a splash of water and continue cooking until tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Step 3
3

Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add chicken sausage and half the seasoning. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Step 4
4

Add tomato paste and couscous to sausage mixture and stir until well-combined. Stir in 2 cups water (3 cups for 4p) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring often, until couscous is tender and liquid has mostly evaporated, 8-10 minutes. (Add a splash of water if mixture gets too thick before couscous is tender.)

Step 5
5

Stir bell pepper into pan. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary. (If your pan isn't ovenproof, transfer mixture now to a baking dish.)

Step 6
6

Sprinkle pan evenly with mozzarella and broil on top rack until bubbly and golden-brown, about 3 minutes. (Watch out for burning! The broiler is a powerful tool.) Divide between plates and serve.
