Grouse and Sausage country style!

[labs4me]

I had a couple of Grouse breast from a quick hunt my son and took the other weekend... wanted to try to make something a little different... I think it turned out fantastic!

Ingredients:
1 lb. bulk mild Italian sausage (I used venison but store bought works too)
1/2 lb. of ring Smoked Sausage or Kielbasa - sliced diagonally
2-3 grouse, pheasant or chicken boneless breasts - sliced in long strips
1 green pepper - slice in thin strips
1 red pepper - slice in thin strips
1/4 - 1/3 red chili or salsa pepper finely diced
1 large white onion quartered then cut in half again
3 medium cloves of garlic
1 4oz. can tomatoe paste
3-4  Fresh Roma Tomatos - diced
Italian seasoning
salt and pepper
Mostacioli noodles

-Brown bulk Italian sausage and crumble, drain grease and set aside
-put a tblsp or 2 of olive oil back in skillet heat on medium and sautee grouse strips, peppers and onions, 3 cloves of garlic - pressed, salt and pepper, till tender and then add in the sliced smoked sausage, continue cooking over low till sausage is hot
-return Italian sausage to pan and mix in one can of tomatoe paste. Season to taste with Italian seasoning
-At this point I realized the sauce was too thick... I didn't have any wine to add to thin so instead I used 2-4 oz. of Killians Red beer to thin it out a little...
- stir in tomatos, cover and simmer while cooking noodles

Serve over Mostacioli topped with shredded parmesan. I served it with warmed-buttered Italian bread and ceasar salad

Good Luck!
