Best 3 Bumped Up Brussels Sprouts Recipes

BRUSSELS SPROUT GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Shave the Brussels sprouts crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices with a sharp knife or mandoline. In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts, cheddar, flour, thyme and garlic; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Transfer the mixture to an 8-inch-square baking dish, packing it in. Pour the heavy cream evenly on top.
• In a small bowl, combine the panko, parmesan and olive oil and pour over the Brussels sprout mixture. Bake, uncovered, until the Brussels sprouts are tender, the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with the parsley.

BUMPED-UP BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium pan over medium heat cook the pancetta and capers. Remove from pan, reserving a little of the pancetta fat in the pan. Add the Brussels sprouts to the pan and cook over medium heat to begin to brown. Dress with balsamic and olive oil, a little salt (capers and pancetta are salty) and pepper. Place into the oven and roast, tossing a couple of times, until nicely caramelized, about 15 to 20 minutes. Put the pine nuts in a small, dry, saute pan and toast over a low flame, tossing a couple of times, just until lightly browned, 3 or 4 minutes. Once the sprouts are ready, remove them from the oven and put into a big serving bowl. Add the pancetta, the capers, pine nuts, currants and raisins. Toss and check for seasoning. Serve.
