Heat the garlic-infused olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into small crumbles with a wooden spoon, for 6–8 minutes until browned and cooked through with no pink remaining. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage to a plate, leaving the drippings in the pot.
