Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 oz beef sausage, sliced into rounds
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the honey garlic sauce:
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water (optional, for thickening)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, garlic, and apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef sausage slices and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add broccoli and a splash of water. Cover and steam for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove and set aside.
Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add shrimp and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Return sausage and broccoli to the skillet. Pour the honey garlic sauce over everything and toss to coat.
If desired, stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Serve hot over rice or noodles.

Use raw shrimp (not pre-cooked) for the best texture.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3–4 days; reheat gently to avoid overcooking shrimp.
