Creating Sausage and Sweet Potatoes with Honey Garlic Sauce is simple. Follow these steps for a delightful meal:
1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Sausage: In a large skillet or oven-safe pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned on all sides, approximately 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Vegetables: Once browned, add the diced sweet potatoes, red bell pepper, and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
4. Prepare Honey Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, cornstarch, and red pepper flakes until smooth.
5. Combine Sauce and Ingredients: Pour the honey garlic sauce over the sausage and vegetable mixture. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
6. Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
7. Bake in Oven: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until sweet potatoes are tender and sausage is cooked through.
8. Final Touches: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if using.
9. Serve: Enjoy immediately while warm!
