Honey, Soy & Sesame Stir-Fry

Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the slices of chicken sausage and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, until browned. Remove sausage from the pan and set aside.

While the chicken sausage cooks, combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and stir well. Set aside.

In the same pan used to cook the sausage, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallot, garlic and green onions, along with a pinch of salt. Cook until they begin to soften, about 4 minutes. Add the yellow pepper, celery, carrots, broccoli and mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for another 5-6 minutes until the veggies are crisp-tender and the mushrooms are soft. Increase the heat to high and stir in the sauce. The sauce will thicken as it cooks. This should take about 3 minutes. Then you’re ready to serve!

Garnish with additional green onion and panko bread crumbs, if desired.

Notes:
Obviously, omit the chicken sausage to make this vegetarian.

Use any kind of vegetables that you have on hand. Snap peas, edamame, asparagus and/or green beans would be great additions to this stir-fry.
