Quick sausage casserole

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and capsicum and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook, stirring, for 3–4 minutes or until softened. Add tomatoes and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, lightly spray a medium non-stick frying pan with oil and heat over a medium heat. Cook sausages, turning, for 5 minutes or until browned. Remove from pan and cut each sausage into 3 thick slices.
3. Add sausages to tomato mixture with thyme and bay leaf. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes or until sauce thickens (see tip). Add chickpeas and cook for 2 minutes or until heated through. Serve.
