Ingredients

Scale
  • 4โ€“5 hearty honey garlic sausages (pork, chicken, or veggie-based)
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or basil for garnish
  • Red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)

Instructions

  1. Begin by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Slice the sausages into bite-sized pieces and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add two tablespoons of olive oil and toss in the cubed sweet potatoes. Cook for approximately 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and slightly caramelized.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the sweet potatoes and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in honey, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper, coating the sweet potatoes evenly.
  5. Return the cooked sausages to the skillet and mix well. Let everything cook together for another 3-5 minutes to meld flavors.

Notes

  • Choose quality sausages such as pork, chicken, turkey, or plant-based options for the best flavor.
  • For a healthier version, opt for leaner sausages like chicken or turkey.
  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes if you like spicy dishes.
  • Adjust seasoning as needed; taste and modify before serving.
