  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep the Pan

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) or heat a large skillet on medium-high if cooking stovetop.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, pepper, and paprika.

3. Combine Ingredients

  • Add sliced kielbasa and vegetables to the pan.
  • Pour honey garlic sauce over everything and toss to coat evenly.

4. Cook

Oven Method (recommended):

  • Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until veggies are tender and sausage is caramelized.

Stovetop Method:

5. Serve

  • Serve hot straight from the pan with extra sauce drizzled on top.

💡 Tips for Best Results
