Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 links chicken sausage
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 large carrot
- 1 medium onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions
Instructions
Slice the chicken sausage into bite-sized rounds and set aside.
Thinly slice the red and yellow bell peppers. Peel and julienne the carrot. Chop the broccoli florets into smaller pieces if needed. Thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced chicken sausage to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until browned on both sides. Remove and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the onions and garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the carrots, bell peppers, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken sausage to the skillet. Stir to combine with the vegetables.
Pour the prepared sauce over the sausage and vegetable mixture. Toss everything together to ensure it's evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Remove the stir fry from the heat. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and garnish with thinly sliced green onions.
Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
