Ingredients
1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 lb smoked sausage, sliced
2 cups broccoli florets
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons soy sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional, for added flavor)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
Green onions, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until crispy and tender.
- While the broccoli roasts, mix the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and sesame oil (if using) in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook for 5-6 minutes until browned and crispy. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
- Pour the honey garlic sauce into the skillet and simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly. Return the sausage and shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat them in the sauce.
- Once the broccoli is done, add it to the skillet and toss everything together.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving. Serve hot with rice or noodles.
Notes
- For extra heat, add more red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha to the honey garlic sauce.
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari sauce instead of soy sauce.
- Frozen broccoli can be used, but fresh is recommended for the best texture.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
