Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 oz smoked sausage, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Peel and devein the shrimp, slice the sausage, and cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Mince the garlic and set everything aside.
- Cook the Sausage and Broccoli: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook for 3-4 minutes until it starts to brown and become slightly crispy. Remove the sausage and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes until bright green and just tender. Remove and set aside with the sausage.
- Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
- Make the Honey Garlic Sauce: Reduce heat to medium, add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in honey, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened and glossy.
- Combine and Serve: Return the cooked sausage, broccoli, and shrimp to the skillet. Toss together until well coated with the sauce and cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the level of red pepper flakes for desired heat.
- Adding fresh lemon juice gives a nice brightness to the dish but is optional.
