Preheat the griddle to medium-low. Place the sausage links on the griddle and add a splash of water. Cover with a dome and steam for 3 to 4 minutes. While the sausages are steaming, slice the peppers and onion into strips. Lightly coat them in olive oil and set aside. Slice the garlic cloves and set those aside as well.
Flip the sausages, add a bit more water, cover again with the dome, and steam for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the dome and either keep the sausages whole by adding a touch of oil to brown them, or slice them directly on the griddle into coins. Add the onions and peppers to the griddle, tossing them with the sausage. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender to your liking and the sausage begins to brown and crisp. Add more oil if needed.
Stir in the sliced garlic and cherry tomatoes. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the tomatoes start to burst. Season everything with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
Serve the sausage and pepper mixture alongside Italian rolls and sliced provolone or mozzarella cheese for assembling sandwiches. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and enjoy!
