Air Fryer
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

Notes
- Choose the right sausage: Use a good quality sausage, such as Italian sausage or chorizo, for the best flavor. You can use sweet or spicy sausage depending on your preference.
- Use a variety of peppers: Mix different colors of bell peppers, such as green, red, and yellow, for a colorful and flavorful dish. You can also add other types of peppers, such as poblano or Anaheim, for extra flavor and heat.
- Cut the ingredients evenly: Cut the sausage and peppers into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
