Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 12 oz pre-cooked chicken sausages I like Applegate chicken apple sausages - cut into ¼ inch rounds
  • 1 lb peeled & deveined shrimp tails removed and thawed if previously frozen
  • 12 oz broccoli florets
  • cup water
  • sliced green onions for garnish

Hot Honey Sauce

  • ½ cup coconut aminos
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp Mike's Hot Honey or regular honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1.5 tsp arrowroot powder
  • crushed red pepper flakes optional - delicious if you like extra heat!

Instructions

  • Combine the hot honey sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside. 
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add in the chicken sausage in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the shrimp and stir for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sausages are cooked through and browned and the shrimp is cooked/no longer opaque.
  • Remove both using a slotted spoon and set aside. 
  • Add the broccoli and water to the pan and cover. Steam over medium high heat for 3-4 minutes or until the broccoli is just fork tender. Remove the lid and add the sausage and shrimp back in.
  • Turn the heat to medium low and pour the sauce into the pan. Stir for a few minutes until thickened.
  • Serve over white rice or cauliflower rice and top with sliced green onions. Enjoy!

Notes

  • I kept it simple with broccoli, but you can use a stir-fry mix with fresh vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, snow peas or snap peas, onions, mushrooms, baby corn, water chestnuts, bok choy, etc. This is also a good opportunity to use leftover veggies or clean out your produce drawer.
  • I like Applegate chicken apple sausages. You can also use a spicy sausage or another flavor, but I like the sweet apple sausage combination with the spicy hot honey sauce.
  • You can swap the chicken sausage and shrimp for regular chicken breasts or chicken thighs if desired– the hot honey sauce is seriously the most amazing sauce and quite versatile. 
  • Store leftover shrimp and sausage stir fry in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For best results, reheat over the stovetop and serve with a fresh batch of white rice, brown rice, or cauliflower rice.
