One Pan Keto Italian Sausage Skillet Meal
Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 2 lb. Italian sausage
- 24 Cherry tomatoes
- 4 c. Broccoli florets
- ½ tsp. Thyme
- 1 tsp. Basil
- 1 tbsp. Olive oil
- 2 tbsp. Butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parmesan cheese for garnish
Instructions:
Begin by cutting the Italian sausage into bite sized pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the skillet is hot, add in the Italian sausage, and cook for 8-10 minutes until completely cooked through.
While the Italian sausage is cooking, lightly steam the broccoli on the stove top or in the microwave. You just want it to be crisp tender, so do not overcook.
When the sausage has finished cooking, pour off some of the extra grease if necessary. Add the steamed broccoli into the skillet, and gently stir to combine.
Add 2 tablespoon of unsalted butter to the skillet, and allow it to melt over the meat and broccoli.
Mix in ½ teaspoon of Thyme, and 1 tsp of Basil. Stir to coat the ingredients well.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the skillet. Mix them in well, and then simmer for another minute or two. Mix in salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the Italian sausage skillet with a garnish of parmesan cheese.

Oh my... I don't know why I didn't think of frying up my broccoli with my sausage myself. I've been boiling it on the side this entire time, like a dummy! Definitely trying this the next time I have sausage!

I just made this but...I started the sausage then after browning a bit threw in a diced boiled and drained jicama briwned with the sausage a bit then added a couple charred diced jalapenos without the seeds and membranes the broccoli and browned a bit with rest then added a couple diced tomatoes as I had no cherry or grape ones and the seasonings, stirred and cooked til tomatoes started releasing juice then sprinkled the parm on top and a mixed Italian blend then threw in 350° oven to melt the cheese about 5 min. sooo good! Thanks it was a great yummy dish and bonus*1- Pot!
