Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Once the oil glistens, add 1 pound of your choice of sausage, breaking it into bite-sized pieces. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Stir in 2 cups of cubed sweet potatoes into the skillet with the browned sausage. Cook for another 5 minutes until they start to become tender.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of honey, 4 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of paprika. Pour over the sausage and sweet potatoes in the skillet.
  • Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low, letting everything simmer for about 10 minutes until sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
  • Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top and serve hot.
