Parboil bratwursts in a pan of boiling water for 12-15 minutes to start the cooking process.

While sausages are boiling, slice bell peppers and onion.

Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet.

Add sliced bell peppers and onions to the skillet; sauté until they are 75% cooked, about 5-7 minutes, seasoning with salt and black pepper.

Remove the peppers and onions from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil and cook the parboiled bratwursts until golden brown on all sides, about 7 minutes, flipping as needed.

Heat marinara sauce in the microwave until warm.

Assemble the bratwurst sandwiches by placing the cooked bratwursts in hot dog buns, adding sautéed peppers and onions, and optionally topping with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.
