In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil.
Add the sausage.
Cook and crumble with a wooden spoon until the sausage is well browned, about 4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper and cook until wilted, about 8 minutes, adding a splash of pasta water if the pan seems dry at any point.
