Start by slicing the bell peppers and onion into long strips as you would for a fajita. Set off to the side.
Next, slice the sausage into 1/4 inch wide rings.
Pre-heat the griddle to a medium heat and add some olive oil.
Drop the sliced veggies and minced garlic on one side and the sliced sausage on the other. Season the veggies with Dad's steak seasoning or a mix of salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Flip them around making sure all sides are nicely sautéed and grilled.
Mix the veggies and sausage together and set aside on a low heat.
Place the frozen tortellini on the griddle, add some water and cover with a basting dome. Cook for 5 minutes. Check periodically to make sure there is enough steam. Add more water if needed.
Once the tortellini is soft mix it in with the veggies and sausage. Drizzle the Italian dressing over the top and give this grilled sausage and tortellini dinner once more mix.
Move it to a serving platter, top with freshly shredded parmesan and enjoy!
Notes
Add a diced jalapeno for some heat.
Substitute polish sausage for chicken sausage for a healthier option.
Using frozen tortellini will prevent them from burning and sticking to the hot griddle. The extra moisture will help steam them up.
