# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Everything cooks in one skillet, which means minimal cleanup and maximum flavor as the kielbasa fat mingles with the vegetables
  • The honey garlic glaze strikes that perfect balance between savory and sweet that makes everyone go back for seconds
02 -
  • Don't crowd the pan when browning the kielbasa or it will steam instead of sear—work in batches if needed
  • The glaze will seem thin at first, but give it a few minutes and it'll thicken into the most gorgeous sticky coating
03 -
  • Cut all your vegetables into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly and look beautiful on the plate
  • If the glaze starts getting too thick or sticky before everything's heated through, add a splash of water to loosen it up
