  • Author: Emma Carter
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 8 oz pasta (penne or fusilli works great)
– 1 lb sausage (Italian or smoked)
– 3 tablespoons honey
– 4 cloves garlic (minced)
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for spice)
– 1 cup bell peppers (sliced)
– 1 cup broccoli florets
– ¼ cup green onions (chopped for garnish)
– Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Creating this Sticky Honey Garlic Sausage Pasta Skillet is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Begin by boiling a pot of salted water. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Brown the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Slice the sausage into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Add Vegetables: Toss in the bell peppers and broccoli florets. Stir well and cook until the veggies are slightly tender, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix until well combined.

5. Combine Everything: Pour the honey garlic sauce over the sausage and vegetables. Stir to ensure an even coating and cook for another 2 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.

6. Mix in Pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, and sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.

This step-by-step guide ensures that even those new to cooking can easily prepare this fabulous dish.
