  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch optional, for thickening

Method
 

Prepare the Ingredients:
  1. Slice the sausage into rounds and cut the broccoli into small florets.
  2. Peel and devein the shrimp, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Make the Honey Garlic Sauce:
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  2. If using cornstarch, mix it with water to create a slurry and set aside.
Cook the Sausage:
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sausage slices and cook for 3-4 minutes, until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Broccoli:
  1. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. Toss in the broccoli, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp:
  1. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Combine Everything:
  1. Pour the honey garlic sauce into the skillet and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add the cornstarch slurry if you want a thicker sauce. Stir well.
  3. Return the shrimp, sausage, and broccoli to the pan, tossing everything to coat evenly in the sauce.
Serve and Enjoy:
  1. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
  2. Serve hot over rice, noodles, or enjoy it as a low-carb meal on its own.

Notes

    • If using frozen shrimp, thaw them under cold running water before cooking.
    • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey.
    • Swap broccoli for other vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas.
    • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
    • To reheat, warm on the stovetop over medium heat with a splash of water to prevent drying out.
