Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

kosher salt, to taste
1 lb Brussels sprout, trimmed and halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces cured spanish chorizo, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 small yellow onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a 6-qt. pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook until just tender, 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer Brussels sprouts to a bowl of ice water; let sit for 5 minutes. Drain Brussels sprouts and pat dry with paper towels; set aside.

Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and soft, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until soft, about 2 more minutes. Transfer chorizo mixture to a bowl. Increase heat to high and add the remaining oil and the reserved Brussels sprouts; cook, flipping once or twice, until the Brussels sprouts are browned and tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in the reserved chorizo mixture and season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Trim the Brussels sprouts properly. Cut off the stem end and any brown or damaged leaves.
  • Cook the Brussels sprouts until they are tender but still have a little bit of crunch. Overcooked Brussels sprouts are mushy and bland.
  • Use high-quality chorizo. Good chorizo will add a lot of flavor to the dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs. Paprika, cumin, and chili powder are all good choices.
  • Serve the Brussels sprouts with a squeeze of lemon juice. This will brighten up the flavors.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Brussels sprouts with chorizo is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The Brussels sprouts are roasted until they are tender and slightly caramelized, and the chorizo adds a smoky and spicy flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
