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.

Steps:
- Slice the Brussels sprouts in half, removing any tough ends or browned outer leaves. Quarter any very large sprouts (to make similar sizes for even cooking).
- In a small bowl, mix the water with garlic powder and onion powder.
- In a large skillet, add the oil and butter. Heat on medium high heat until shimmering. Add the sprouts and turn as many as you can cut side down. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes without touching them, keeping an eye on the pan to catch them just as they turn brown.
- Once browned, flip the sprouts with a spatula. Pour in the water with seasonings and stir. Cook 1 to 2 minutes until the water cooks out.
- Once the water cooks out, reduce the heat to medium. Add the salt and fresh ground black pepper. Cook to the desired tenderness, another 6 to 7 minutes until tender but not soft (test with a fork). If the pan becomes dry and browned, add a splash of water again and continue to stir as it cooks out. Taste and add a few sprinkles of kosher salt to taste. If desired, add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese (our favorite). Serve warm.

Steps:
- Toast the walnuts in a dry pan (I always use cast iron to toast nuts) until lightly browned and fragrant. Set aside.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts and discard any damaged outside leaves. Use a food processor fitted with the thin slicing blade to shred the sprouts.
- In a large skillet over medium, heat the oil.
- Add the sprouts to the pan.
- Cook, stirring, until crisp tender, about 5 minutes. The pan will seem very crowded in the beginning, but the Brussels sprouts will shrink down quickly.
- Transfer the brussels sprouts to a serving platter and season with salt and pepper, 1 to 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice, the lemon zest and the walnuts.
- Serve immediately.
