Sausage Sweet Potato Stir-Fry

Grab your favorite KHM Brats, some veggies, and a sweet potatoes for this easy, hearty stir-fry. It’s fantastic on the #Blackstone in the summer and just as delicious cooked in a cast-iron skillet when the weather turns cool.

This recipe started as a quick way to add more vegetables to our meal without a lot of fuss. What began as a simple stir-fry took a flavorful twist when we tossed in sweet potatoes—and they turned out to be the perfect match for our savory brats.

If you prefer rice, you can always skip the sweet potatoes and serve everything over a bed of steamed rice instead. 🍚

We opted for our Beef Brats in this recipe, but any of your favorite KHM brats would work great.  Feel free to mix & match the veggies with your brat selection.

• ½ cup soy sauce
• 2 Tbsp water

Instructions:

1. Whisk all sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
2. Cut the brat casing length-wise & pinch it into bite-size pieces. Sauté in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
