Ingredients
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 oz smoked sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water (optional, for thickening)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Red pepper flakes (optional)
- Chopped green onions or sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Make the honey garlic sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper. Set aside.
- Cook the sausage: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook 3–4 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
- Cook the broccoli: In the same skillet, add broccoli with a splash of water. Cover and steam 2–3 minutes, then uncover and sauté another minute. Remove and set aside.
- Cook the shrimp: Add butter to the skillet, then shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 1–2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
- Combine everything: Return sausage and broccoli to the skillet. Pour in the honey garlic sauce and toss to coat. For a thicker glaze, stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer 1–2 minutes until thickened.
- Serve: Garnish with green onions or sesame seeds. Serve hot over rice, noodles, or enjoy on its own.
Notes
- Swap shrimp for chicken or tofu for variety.
- Add bell peppers or snow peas for extra veggies.
- Use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free option.
- Adjust sweetness or spice by adding chili flakes or sriracha.
- Roast broccoli for deeper flavor before adding to the skillet.
