Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus sprigs for garnish, optional
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Toss the Brussels sprouts, oil and a generous pinch of salt and pepper on the baking sheet until coated. Spread the sprouts, cut-side down, in a single layer and roast until tender and browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Add the breadcrumbs, thyme, pepper flakes and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the crumbs are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and parsley. Scatter over the Brussels sprouts. Garnish with thyme sprigs if using.

CRISP GNOCCHI WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND BROWN BUTTER



Crisp Gnocchi With Brussels Sprouts and Brown Butter image

For a fantastic meal that can be ready in 20 minutes, toss together seared gnocchi and sautéed brussels sprouts with lemon zest, red-pepper flakes and brown butter. The key to this recipe is how you cook the store-bought gnocchi: No need to boil. Just sear them until they are crisp and golden on the outside, and their insides will stay chewy. The resulting texture is reminiscent of fried dough. Shelf-stable and refrigerated gnocchi will both work here, but the shelf-stable ones do crisp up a bit better.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound brussels sprouts (or cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower or even cabbage)
1 lemon
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 (18-ounce) package shelf-stable or refrigerated potato gnocchi
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into 6 pieces
1/2 teaspoon honey
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Trim and halve the brussels sprouts. Using a vegetable peeler, peel thick strips of lemon zest, then coarsely chop. (You should have about 2 teaspoons chopped zest.)
  • In a large (preferably 12-inch) skillet, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high. Add the brussels sprouts, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, then arrange the brussels sprouts in an even layer, cut-side down. Scatter the lemon zest over the top and cook, undisturbed, until the brussels sprouts are well browned underneath, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the red-pepper flakes, stir and cook until the brussels sprouts are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
  • In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. Break up any gnocchi that are stuck together, add them to the pan and cook, covered and undisturbed, until golden brown on one side, 2 to 4 minutes. Add the butter and honey, season with salt and a generous amount of black pepper, and cook, stirring, until the butter is golden, nutty smelling and foaming, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the brussels sprouts until warmed through. Serve with grated Parmesan.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, slice the Brussels sprouts uniformly. If there are any particularly large Brussels sprouts, cut them into quarters.
  • Use fresh Brussels sprouts for the best flavor and texture. Fresh Brussels sprouts will have tightly closed leaves and a bright green color.
  • The key to making perfect brown butter is to cook it over medium-low heat and watch it carefully. The butter should foam and then turn golden brown. If the butter starts to smoke, remove it from the heat immediately.
  • If you don't have a lemon on hand, you can substitute white wine or apple cider vinegar.
  • Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately after cooking. They can be served as a side dish or as a main course.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Brussels sprouts in brown butter is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this healthy vegetable. The brown butter adds a rich, nutty flavor to the Brussels sprouts, and the lemon juice brightens up the dish. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next dinner party or potluck.
