Description

Enjoy a warm and comforting plate of Sticky Honey Garlic Sausage Pasta Skillet, featuring smoky sausage, fragrant garlic, and a hint of sweetness from honey.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz pasta (any type)
  • 1 lb sausage (sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil, then add your pasta, cooking according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a bit of pasta water if desired.
  2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Allow it to warm for a moment before adding the sausage for that perfect sizzle.
  3. Brown the Sausage: Add the sliced sausage to the skillet, cooking until browned and slightly crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Use a wooden spoon to stir occasionally, allowing for even cooking.
  4. Add Garlic and Pepper Flakes: Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using), continuing to cook for an additional minute until the garlic becomes fragrant, ensuring it doesn’t burn.
  5. Mix in Honey and Soy Sauce: Pour the honey and soy sauce into the skillet, mixing them well to coat the sausage in a luscious glaze that brings everything together beautifully.
  6. Combine with Pasta: Carefully add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together until well combined. If the mixture seems dry, a splash of pasta water can help bring it all together.
  7. Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper, tasting as you go to perfect the flavors.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley before serving to brighten up your beautiful dish!

Notes

Make ahead by preparing sausage and garlic the night before. Customize with vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for added nutrition.
