- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) pure maple syrup
- 30 g (2 tablespoons) Dijon mustard

Instructions
- Prepare Glaze and Sausage: Slice the pre-cooked turkey sausage into 1 cm rounds. Whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and black pepper in a small bowl to form the glaze.
- Sauté Onion Base: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely diced onion and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden brown.
- Brown Sausage and Garlic: Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the sliced sausage to the skillet in a single layer. Increase heat to medium-high and cook for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until the sausage slices are browned and heated through.
- Glaze the Dish: Pour the prepared glaze over the sausage and onions. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the glaze thickens significantly and coats the sausage slices with a rich, sticky sheen.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the glazed turkey sausage and onions immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley or thyme.
Notes
To save time, dice the onion, mince the garlic, and prepare the glaze mixture up to 3 days in advance. Ensure the sausage is pre-cooked for quick cooking time. Use a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet for best results.
