PAN-ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Pan-Roasted Brussels Sprouts image

I never liked Brussels sprouts as a kid, but now I love them. You don't normally find this vegetable in the Spanish kitchen, so the flavorful combination of sprouts and chorizo is my take on a new Spanish-American side.

Provided by Seamus Mullen

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 pounds Brussels sprouts, preferably baby
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces dried Spanish chorizo, diced
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup chicken stock
Parsley, for garnish, or herb of your choice
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • To prepare the Brussels sprouts, remove any tough leaves from the outside, trim the ends, and cut in half lengthwise. Cut lemon wedges for the fresh lemon juice. Heat a very large, heavy-bottomed (preferably cast-iron) sauté pan over medium high heat. Drizzle in the olive oil. Add the sprouts to the pan, cut side down, in a single, uncrowded layer (work in batches if they won't all fit at once). Continue to cook the sprouts until they begin to brown and caramelize.
  • Add the chorizo to the sprouts. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Continue to cook the sprouts until they are slightly softened and bright green, but still have bite to them. Add ¼ cup of the chicken stock. Stir the sprouts and cook until the stock evaporates. Add another ¼ cup of stock, and keep cooking and adding stock until the sprouts soften more but are still al dente. Squeeze in the fresh lemon juice. Season with salt, to taste.
  • Once the sprouts are cooked, remove from the heat and scoop them into a deep serving bowl. Garnish with the freshly chopped parsley (or herb of your choice) and serve.

PAN ROASTED ALMOND BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Pan Roasted Almond Brussels Sprouts image

This was a side dish my mother taught me to make after she modified a recipe she'd found in a cookbook to suit our family's tastes. These get deliciously crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. So good I could eat them as the meal itself. NOTE: Try to choose sprouts that are all about the same size. Smaller sprouts work best.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs fresh Brussels sprouts
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup slivered almonds
2 -3 teaspoons kosher salt (or to taste)
2 -3 teaspoons fresh black pepper (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Trim the cut ends of the brussel sprout, remove any outer leaves that fall off, and cut the sprouts in half lengthwise.
  • Heat oil and in a large flat-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
  • When the oil it hot, sprinkle salt and pepper in the oil and cover the bottom of the pan with the sprouts, cut side down. Don't worry if the sprouts touch, just get as many in as you can.
  • Sprinkle the top of the sprouts with a little more salt and pepper and let them sizzle for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Divide the butter and drop small amounts around the top of the pan. It will melt down over the sprouts.
  • After another minute or two, check a sprout to see if it's browning nicely. If so, turn the sprouts over and allow the other sides to brown for another 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the almonds over the sprouts and stir the pan to incorporate the nuts. Watch carefully to prevent the almonds from scorching.
  • Roast for another 3-5 minutes, until the sprouts and almonds are toasty and crisp. Serve as is or sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top for a little extra goodness!

Tips:

  • Choose small, firm Brussels sprouts. Smaller sprouts are more tender and flavorful, and they will cook more evenly.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts. Cut off the stem end and any wilted or yellow leaves.
  • Halve or quarter the Brussels sprouts. This will help them cook more evenly.
  • Season the Brussels sprouts. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Pan-fry the Brussels sprouts over medium-high heat. This will help them brown and caramelize.
  • Stir the Brussels sprouts occasionally. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Cook the Brussels sprouts until they are tender. This should take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately. They can be served as a side dish or main course.

Conclusion:

Pan-browned Brussels sprouts are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them crispy or tender, pan-browned Brussels sprouts are a great way to add some extra vegetables to your diet.
