For a vegetarian option, substitute the sausage with mushrooms or bell peppers. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone or fontina, for a unique twist. To add a touch of freshness, garnish with chopped fresh basil or parsley before serving.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
Prepare the Sausage and Onions: In a large skillet, sauté the sausage in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until browned, approximately 8-10 minutes. Drain off any excess oil and set the sausage aside. (Time: 10 minutes)
02
Step
20 mins
Caramelize the Onions: In the same skillet, heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the sliced onions and garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized, about 12-15 minutes. (Time: 15 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Simmer the Sauce: Stir in the tomato sauce, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. (Time: 5 minutes)
04
Step
2 mins
Combine and Toast: In a bowl, combine the cooked sausage, caramelized onions, and sliced olives. Lightly toast the sliced French bread under a broiler until golden brown, roughly 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. (Time: 3 minutes)
05
Step
3 mins
Assemble and Broil: Top each slice of toasted bread with the sausage mixture, then sprinkle generously with shredded mozzarella cheese. Broil for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, keeping a close eye to avoid burning. (Time: 3 minutes)
06
Step
2 mins
Serve: Remove from the broiler, slice each piece if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!
