ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS WITH HONEY & PECANS RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Honey & Pecans Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-5050

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 package fresh Brussel Sprouts
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher Salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Start by slicing the ends off of each sprout and cutting them in half. Drizzle on about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, just enough to coat each sprout. Toss in a good-sized pinch of kosher salt and ground pepper. Gently stir the sprouts to coat them in oil, but be careful not to stir too vigorously as to break them apart. Turn the sprout out on to a cookie sheet lined with non-stick aluminum foil. Roast at 400°F for about 20 to 30 minutes, using a spatula to turn them half way through cooking. While they're roasting, add 1 tablespoon of butter to a small saucepan, followed by 1 tablespoon honey. Warm the honey butter on low heat until combined. Add 1/4 cup of chopped pecans to a small cookie sheet and roast them along with the sprouts for about 4 to 5 minutes until they are perfectly roasted. Remove the sprouts and pour on the honey butter and top with the pecans and gently toss.

From TOH magazine. Love Brussels sprouts and this is a way of making them even more special. Can substitute unsweetened apple juice for the wine if you prefer. These have a sweet taste to them so if you arn't a fan of that, probably not for you. But my family loved it

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH APPLES AND HONEY-ROASTED PECANS



Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Apples and Honey-Roasted Pecans image

Categories     Roast     Vegetarian     Apple     Pecan     Fall     Honey

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
1 large onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons salt or to taste
2 baking apples, such as Braeburn or Granny Smith, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup honey-roasted pecans (recipe follows)
Freshly ground black pepper
Honey-Roasted Pecans
1 cup pecan halves
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
(makes 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F.
  • Place the Brussels sprouts and onions in a 9 × 13-inch baking dish. Add the olive oil and salt, and toss to coat.
  • Roast until the Brussels sprouts begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Add the apples, mix, and return to the oven. Continue roasting, turning every 10 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts and onions are fully cooked and tender and the apples are beginning to soften, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the dish from the oven, add the vinegar, and toss to incorporate. Season with additional salt, if desired, and transfer to a platter. Top with the pecans and a generous sprinkle of pepper. Serve immediately.
  • Honey-Roasted Pecans
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Place the pecans on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle on the honey, add the salt, and toss to coat.
  • Roast, tossing every 5 minutes, until the pecans are deep brown, well roasted, and let off a strong, nutty aroma, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the pecans from the oven and allow to cool before using or serving.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, bright green sprouts with tightly closed leaves.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Cut off the brown, woody ends and any loose outer leaves.
  • Blanch the Brussels sprouts: This will help to tenderize them and bring out their vibrant green color. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the Brussels sprouts and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Roast the Brussels sprouts: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and browned.
  • Make the honey-roasted pecans: While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, make the honey-roasted pecans. In a small saucepan, combine the pecans, honey, butter, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pecans are evenly coated and toasted. Transfer the pecans to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and let them cool.
  • Assemble the dish: In a large bowl, combine the roasted Brussels sprouts, honey-roasted pecans, and crumbled goat cheese. Toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This roasted Brussels sprouts with pecans and honey is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The Brussels sprouts are tender and flavorful, the pecans add a sweet and nutty crunch, and the goat cheese adds a creamy richness. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table!
