Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces smoked sausages
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Place the smoked sausages in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are browned and heated through. Transfer the sausages to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the unsalted butter and allow it to melt over medium heat.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
Slowly add the chicken broth to the skillet, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue to whisk for 1-2 minutes as the mixture begins to thicken.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and honey. Mix until well combined.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Return the sausages to the skillet, spooning the mustard sauce over them, and cook for another 2 minutes until everything is warmed through.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
