  4. Stir in the honey, low-sodium soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Let this glaze simmer for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Pour the honey garlic glaze evenly over the sausage, sweet potatoes, and broccoli. Toss everything until well coated.
  6. Place the pan in the oven and roast for 25–30 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Best Way to Serve

Honey Garlic Sheet Pan Sausage is visually appealing and can be served straight from the pan for a casual family dinner.

Pro Chef Tips

For the best results, try to cut your sweet potatoes and broccoli into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.

And remember, don’t rush the browning of the sausage—this adds to the depth of flavor.
