Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound sausage (smoked, andouille, or your choice), sliced
Vegetables
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
Sauce & Seasonings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish (Optional)
- Sesame seeds
- Chopped green onions
Instructions
- Cook the Sausage: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook until browned on all sides. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Garlic: Using the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not burnt.
- Cook the Broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become slightly tender but still crisp.
- Combine Everything: Return the cooked sausage to the skillet. Add the shrimp, honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Stir everything together well and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.
- Thicken the Sauce (Optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water until smooth. Stir this mixture into the skillet and cook for an additional minute until the sauce thickens.
- Season & Serve: Season the dish with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if desired. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for extra flavor and presentation. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- You can substitute shrimp with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
- Use tamari instead of soy sauce to make this dish gluten-free.
- Adjust the crushed red pepper flakes to increase or reduce heat.
- Serve over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
- For extra crunch, lightly steam the broccoli before adding to the pan.
