By nancytripp

Ingredients

• 2 * 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 * 2 lb sweet Italian sausage (about 12 3- to 4-inch links)
• 2 * 2 lb seedless red grapes, stemmed
• 1/4 * 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• * Accompaniment: sautéed greens with garlic

Preparation

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook sausages, turning over once, until well browned, about 8 minutes total. Add grapes and cook, stirring occasionally, until sausages are cooked through and grapes are softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
