How to Cook Sausage in a Pan
Delightful at any time of the day, sausages fry up easily to provide a delicious meal. Although sausages may contain a variety of different ground meats, including pork, beef and turkey, they all contain a measurable amount of seasonings to make them zesty and tasty. Cook sausage in a pan -- the pan-frying method will produce tender sausages on the inside with a crisp and flavorful outer casing.
Things You'll Need
- Frying pan (with lid)
- Fork
- Spatula
- Knife
Instructions
-
Place the frying pan on the stovetop and cover the bottom of the pan with about 1/4-inch of water.
-
Puncture each sausage two or three times with the tines of a fork and place the sausages into the pan. Piercing the sausage casings allows the sausage juices to flavor the cooking water.
-
Turn the burner to medium and cover the pan. Cook the sausages for about five minutes.
-
Remove the lid and rearrange the sausages gently with the spatula. Flip the sausages over to brown the other sides. Cover the pan again.
-
Cook the sausages until the water disappears and the casings lightly brown -- approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
-
Check the inside of a sausage for doneness. Remove one sausage and cut into it to see the center. As long as the center is no longer pink, the sausage is fully cooked.
-
Turn off the burner and keep the sausages warm in the covered frying pan until you are ready to serve them.
