CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PECANS



Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Pecans image

From the Voluptuous Vegan. Sounds delicious. I'll probably be trying this real soon, so I'll have an update for anyone who's interested. A 1/4 pound of bruseel sprouts is considered to be 20 small or 10 large. The cookbook gives you a choice with the pearl onions that I could not include in the list of ingredients, and that is you could use red pearl onions.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup pecan halves
1/4 lb Brussels sprout
2 ounces white pearl onions, tip and root ends cut off
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Arrange the pecan halves on a baking sheet and toast for 7 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool.
  • Remove the outer leaves of the brussel sprouts and trim the stems. If any of them are large cut in half.
  • Bring a small saucepan of water to boil. Blanch the onions for one minute, and then drain and peel the outer layer of skin from each onion.
  • In a small bowl combine the water, maple syrup and mustard and whisk.
  • Heat a medium sized skillet before adding snything first; then add the oil, onions, and brussel sprouts and saute for a few minutes or until the sprouts begin to brown.
  • Add the syrup mixture to the skillet, reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Cook until the sprouts are tender and the liquid has turned to a glaze, which should take 10-12 minutes.
  • Stir in the pecans, add the salt and pepper and serve while hot.

Tips:

  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Use a sharp knife to remove the tough outer leaves and the stem end of each Brussels sprout.
  • Slice the bacon thinly: This will help it cook evenly and get crispy.
  • Caramelize the onions slowly: This will bring out their natural sweetness and make them soft and tender.
  • Use a large skillet: This will give the Brussels sprouts plenty of room to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you do, the Brussels sprouts will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the Brussels sprouts until they are tender and slightly browned: This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Add the bacon, pecans, and maple syrup in the last few minutes of cooking: This will help to glaze the Brussels sprouts and add a touch of sweetness.
  • Serve immediately: These Brussels sprouts are best enjoyed hot and crispy.
