2–3 cloves garlic, minced

🔥 Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven:
400°F (200°C). Line a baking dish or tray with foil or parchment for easy cleanup. -
Prep the Sausages:
Place sausages in a single layer in the dish. If they’re thick, you can score them with a knife to help absorb the glaze. -

Honey
-
Soy sauce
-
Minced garlic
-
Dijon mustard
-
Vinegar/lemon juice
-
Olive oil
-
(Optional) Red pepper flakes

-
Glaze & Bake:
-
Pour half the glaze over the sausages and toss or brush to coat.
-
Bake for 20 minutes.
-
Remove from oven, flip sausages, and brush with remaining glaze.
-
Return to oven and bake another 10–15 minutes, or until sausages are cooked through and sticky/golden.
-
-
Caramelize (Optional):
-
Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for extra caramelization, watching closely to avoid burning.
-
-
Serve:
-
Let rest for 5 minutes.

Slice or serve whole, topped with chopped parsley or green onions.
