3 slices bacon, chopped
2 shallots, chopped

BRUSSELS SPROUTS SAUTéED WITH WALNUTS



Brussels Sprouts Sautéed With Walnuts image

Bring out the nutty side of brussels sprouts by mixing them with walnuts for a simple fall side dish in this quick recipe.

Provided by Molly Watson

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound ​ Brussels sprouts
1/3 cup walnuts (chopped)
1 tablespoon butter (or oil)
1/2 teaspoon salt (fine sea salt preferred)
Optional: walnut oil* for drizzling

Steps:

  • Trim off and discard the ends of the brussels sprouts. Pull off the darker outer leaves. Cut larger brussels sprouts in half or quarters, leaving only the smallest, tenderest sprouts whole. You want all the sprouts or cut sprouts to be about the same size so they cook evenly. Set aside the trimmed, prepped sprouts.
  • Heat a large frying pan or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the walnuts to the dry, hot pan and cook, stirring frequently, until they're starting to toast, about 3 minutes. They will continue toasting after you take them off the heat, so remove them before they're as dark as you'd like them. Transfer the walnuts to a dish and set aside.
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat and melt the butter or heat the oil. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom with the butter or oil. Add the Brussels sprouts, salt, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to a gentle but steady simmer and cook, undisturbed, until the Brussels sprouts are bright green and tender almost all the way through, 3 to 5 minutes depending on the size of the sprouts.
  • Uncover and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and starting to brown, about 3 minutes. The water should all be evaporated at that point as well. Add the walnuts and stir to combine.
  • Transfer the brussels sprouts to a serving dish and drizzle with walnut oil, if you like. Serve hot or warm. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm for up to an hour, if desired. If holding warm, wait until serving to drizzle on the walnut oil.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WALNUTS AND POMEGRANATE



Brussels Sprouts With Walnuts and Pomegranate image

Roasting brussels sprouts brings out their nutty sweetness and keeps them crisp-crunchy around the edges. Tossing them with walnuts and tangy, jewel-like pomegranate seeds adds texture and brightness. It's worth seeking out pomegranate molasses (widely available in most large grocery stores) to finish this dish. But if you can't find it, don't let it stop you from make this celebration-worthy side.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup roughly chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds, plus more to taste
Pomegranate molasses, for drizzling (optional)
Flaky salt, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss brussels sprouts with the olive oil. Season well with the salt and black pepper and toss again. Spread everything evenly on a sheet pan cut-side-down and roast until crisp and deeply golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sprouts halfway through to ensure even browning.
  • Meanwhile, toast the walnuts in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to ensure they don't burn, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • When the brussels sprouts are done roasting, toss them with the toasted walnuts and the pomegranate seeds. Drizzle with the pomegranate molasses (about 1 teaspoon or so), if using. Season with flaky salt.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS #1 (ROASTED WITH WALNUTS)



Brussels Sprouts #1 (Roasted With Walnuts) image

Coming from a Standard American Diet (SAD) background, Brussels sprouts have not been a regular part of my diet. Now I understand the importance of them, in part because of websites such as http://www.WHFoods.com, where they write about the benefits in great detail. People with existing and untreated thyroid problems should read the Safety section. Their peak season is autumn through early spring. So far, this is my favorite way to eat Brussels sprouts. I adapted the recipe from a produce section recipe rack card.
