Slice the sausage into bite-sized pieces. Chop the cabbage into thin strips and dice the bell peppers and onion.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add sesame oil. Once hot, add the sausage and cook until browned (about 5 minutes).
Add onions and garlic; sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant. Incorporate cabbage and bell peppers; stir-fry until vegetables are tender yet crisp.
Pour in soy sauce and red pepper flakes; mix well and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
