Prep: 10 min · Cook: 15 min · Yield: 8 · Method: Stovetop

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds fully cooked smoked sausage
• 0.33 cup hot honey
• 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 each green onions

Cooking instructions

1. Cut the sausage into 1-inch rounds. In a small bowl, whisk together the hot honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and black pepper. (about 5 min)
2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and lightly caramelized. The sausage should reach 165°F if it was not labeled fully cooked. (about 8 min) — Medium-high heat
3. Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the honey-Dijon glaze. Toss and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the sauce is glossy and coats the sausage. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with sliced green onions, and serve warm with toothpicks. (about 2 min) — Medium-low heat
