Scale
Proteins:
- 1 pound (454 grams) large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 pound (227 grams) smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
Vegetables:
- 2 cups broccoli florets
Seasoning and Sauce:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooking Ingredient:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Instructions
- Warm a spacious skillet with olive oil over medium-high temperature, introducing sliced sausage and caramelizing until golden edges develop, approximately 2-3 minutes per surface.
- Transfer sausage to a separate plate, preserving the savory cooking remnants in the skillet.
- Introduce additional olive oil and gently sear shrimp until they transform into a vibrant pink hue, ensuring complete protein cooking through gentle turning.
- Extract shrimp and position alongside the sausage, maintaining the skillet’s heat and flavor foundation.
- Incorporate remaining olive oil and carefully tumble broccoli florets, sautéing until they reach a crisp-tender consistency with slight emerald brightness.
- Craft a harmonious sauce by whisking honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and optional fiery red pepper flakes in a compact mixing vessel.
- Cascade the aromatic sauce over broccoli, thoroughly integrating each verdant floret with the glossy mixture.
- Reintroduce sausage and shrimp into the skillet, gently folding to ensure comprehensive sauce coverage and uniform heating.
- Allow the entire ensemble to meld together for 2-3 minutes, creating a cohesive, flavor-packed dish.
- Present immediately atop steamed rice or tender noodles for a complete culinary experience.
Notes
- Choose pre-cooked sausage for faster preparation and easier cooking.
- Pat shrimp dry before cooking to achieve better caramelization and prevent steaming.
- Adjust red pepper flakes based on preferred spice level for family-friendly or heat-loving palates.
- Consider using low-sodium soy sauce to control salt content and make dish more health-conscious.
