Ingredients
- Sausages (Italian, chicken, or your choice)
- Honey
- Fresh garlic (minced)
- Soy sauce
- Olive oil (for sautéing)
- Fresh herbs (optional: parsley or thyme for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sausages to the pan and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through (about 8-10 minutes).
- While the sausages cook, prepare the honey garlic sauce: In a small bowl, mix together honey, minced garlic, and soy sauce.
- Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the pan and set them aside.
- In the same skillet, pour the honey garlic sauce and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir occasionally, allowing the sauce to thicken and become fragrant (about 2-3 minutes).
- Return the sausages to the skillet and toss them in the honey garlic sauce until they are fully coated and glazed.
- Garnish with fresh herbs (optional) and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you like your sausages a bit crispy, let them cook a little longer until the exterior is golden brown before removing them from the pan.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey depending on your preference.
- Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
- For a spicy kick, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
