- 300 g broccoli florets Keep broccoli tender but crisp.
- 4 cloves garlic, finely minced

- 15 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1.25 ml red pepper flakes (optional) Add more for extra heat.

Instructions
Preparation
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes, if using. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Cooking
- Add the sliced sausage and cook for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until evenly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until shrimp are pink and opaque. Transfer to the plate with sausage.
- Add broccoli florets to the skillet and sauté for 4–5 minutes or until bright green and just tender. Add a splash of water if necessary to steam the broccoli.
- Return the sausage and shrimp to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour over the prepared honey garlic sauce and stir well to coat. Cook for 2–3 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken and flavor the ingredients.
- Spoon the hot mixture over cooked rice or quinoa.
- Garnish with parsley or cilantro if desired before serving.
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or a skillet over low heat until warmed through. Store cooked rice or quinoa separately to prevent sogginess.
