Sautéed Brussels Sprouts image

Pan sautéed Brussels sprouts are a quick, easy way to make delicious Brussels sprouts you'll want to eat every night! Crispy, caramelized, and addictive!

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Side Dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound Brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar or lemon juice
1 to 2 tablespoons raw pine nuts (or chopped raw walnuts, almonds, or pecans (optional))
Chopped fresh herbs like parsley (cilantro or mint (optional))
A handful of Parmesan (feta, or goat cheese (optional))

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast iron or similar sturdy bottomed skillet over medium high for 4 minutes. Add the oil. As soon as the oil is hot and shining (but before it starts smoking), swirl to cost the pan, then add the halved Brussels sprouts. Shake the skillet a little and prod them so that as many as possible are cut-side down. Let sit completely undisturbed for 5 to 8 minutes, until they develop a dark, tasty, caramelized sear.
  • Add the salt and pepper. With a wooden spoon or spatula, stir the Brussels sprouts. Continue cooking, stirring every few minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are browned all over and just turning tender the inside, about 6 to 8 additional minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the vinegar, then the pine nuts or almonds. Let the residual heat of the skillet toast the nuts, stirring them very often so that they toast evenly on all sides and do not burn (if they aren't toasting, return the skillet to low heat). As soon as the nuts are toasted, transfer the sprouts to a serving plate and sprinkle with fresh herbs. Enjoy hot.

SHEET-PAN LEMONY CHICKEN WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Sheet-Pan Lemony Chicken With Brussels Sprouts image

This is a true oven-to-table sheet-pan dinner full of tender, crunchy brussels sprouts and crispy, lemony chicken. A simple lemon-and-herb compound butter seasons both the chicken and sprouts, which are then topped with thin lemon slices that become crunchy in the oven, offering a nice textural element and a bright splash of color and flavor. The key is to cut the lemon rounds almost paper-thin, so they can crisp up and lose their bitterness. This recipe is easily adjustable for a larger batch: Add 4 drumsticks (about 1 ½ pounds) to the chicken thighs, increase the butter by 1 tablespoon and adjust seasonings as needed.

Provided by Yasmin Fahr

Categories     dinner, weekday, poultry, vegetables, main course

Time 1h

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter or ghee, at room temperature
2 lemons, both zested (about 2 tablespoons), 1 cut into very thin rounds and 1 halved, seeds removed
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves and tender stems, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds)
1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved, tough outer leaves removed
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and cut into 1-inch wedges
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees, set one rack 6 inches from the broiler and place another rack in the lower third of the oven. In a large bowl, combine the butter, zest of both lemons, half the parsley and 1 teaspoon salt. Rub 1 teaspoon oil on a sheet pan. Pat the chicken dry, then transfer to the sheet pan and season well with salt and pepper. Reserve about 1 teaspoon of the compound butter in the bowl, then rub the rest all over the chicken and under the skin by lifting it up, pushing a tiny amount of compound butter underneath, then pressing on top. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up.
  • Add the brussels sprouts, onion wedges, lemon rounds, red-pepper flakes and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to the bowl with the compound butter; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the brussels sprouts mixture around the chicken, placing some lemon rounds on top of the vegetables.
  • Roast on the lower rack, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring the vegetables halfway through, until the chicken is crispy, the chicken juices run clear when the meat is pierced with a fork, and the brussels sprouts are browned and crunchy. If the chicken skin is not as crispy as you'd like, transfer the vegetables to a serving platter, then place the chicken under the broiler for 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the serving platter.
  • Squeeze one of the lemon halves over the chicken and vegetables and cut the remaining lemon half into quarters. Garnish the chicken and vegetables with the cheese and the remaining parsley, and serve with the lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose small and firm Brussels sprouts. Larger sprouts tend to be more bitter and fibrous.
  • Trim the sprouts. Cut off the stem end and remove any yellow or wilted leaves.
  • Wash the sprouts thoroughly. Rinse them under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Halve or quarter the sprouts. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large skillet. This will prevent the sprouts from steaming instead of roasting.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Give the sprouts enough space to brown properly.
  • Roast the sprouts until they are tender and slightly charred. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Make the onion butter while the sprouts are roasting. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the sprouts immediately, topped with the onion butter.

Conclusion:

These roasted Brussels sprouts with onion butter are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner.
