1/2 lb frozen petite Brussels sprout (I like Hanover Gold Line)
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup chicken broth

Tips:

  • Trim the sprouts: Use a sharp knife to trim the stem end of each sprout.
  • Blanch the sprouts: This helps to bring out their natural sweetness and color.
  • Make the vinaigrette while the sprouts are blanching: This will give the flavors time to meld.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: This will make a big difference in the taste of the vinaigrette.
  • Add some fresh herbs to the vinaigrette: This will give it a more complex flavor.
  • Season the vinaigrette to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Toss the sprouts with the vinaigrette while they are still warm: This will help the flavors to absorb.
  • Serve the sprouts immediately: They are best when served warm.
