Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Place sausages in the skillet and sear without moving for 4 minutes until the undersides are golden brown.

  3. Step 3

    Turn sausages and cook another 3–4 minutes until the internal temp reaches 160°F and skin snaps when poked.

  4. Step 4

    Move sausages to a plate. Add onions to the skillet and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.

  5. Step 5

    Sprinkle caraway seeds over the onions and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  6. Step 6

    Return sausages to the pan, top with onions, and serve hot with bread and mustard on the side.
