GOLDEN-CRUSTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS RECIPE image

Categories     Low Fat

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

24 small brussels sprouts
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for rubbing
fine-grain sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated cheese of your choice

Steps:

  • Wash the brussels sprouts well. Trim the stem ends and remove any raggy outer leaves. Cut in half from stem to top and gently rub each half with olive oil, keeping it intact (or if you are lazy just toss them in a bowl with a glug of olive oil). Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in your largest skillet over medium heat. Don't overheat the skillet, or the outsides of the brussels sprouts will cook too quickly. Place the brussels sprouts in the pan flat side down (single-layer), sprinkle with a couple pinches of salt, cover, and cook for roughly 5 minutes; the bottoms of the sprouts should only show a hint of browning. Cut into or taste one of the sprouts to gauge whether they're tender throughout. If not, cover and cook for a few more minutes. Once just tender, uncover, turn up the heat, and cook until the flat sides are deep brown and caramelized. Use a metal spatula to toss them once or twice to get some browning on the rounded side. Season with more salt, a few grinds of pepper, and a dusting of grated cheese. While you might be able to get away with keeping a platter of these warm in the oven for a few minutes, they are exponentially tastier if popped in your mouth immediately.

I'm not a big fan of brussels sprouts, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The brussels sprouts were actually really good. I'll definitely be making them again.

These brussels sprouts were a bit too salty for my taste, but they were still good. I'll probably reduce the amount of salt next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my brussels sprouts didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. Maybe I didn't cook them long enough?

I've tried making brussels sprouts several times before, but they always turned out bland and boring. This recipe was a game-changer! The brussels sprouts were crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious.

These brussels sprouts were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll probably reduce the amount of cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my brussels sprouts turned out soggy instead of crispy. Maybe I didn't cook them long enough?

Followed the recipe exactly and the brussels sprouts turned out great! The only thing I would change next time is to add a little more salt.
