ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS WITH PEAR AND PISTACHIO
Another great find at Food52, stored here for easy retention. After preparing per directions, but without the lemon juice, I topped it with teriyaki sauce (mango-pineapple), and WOW! Was that good! Might even toss in a little crushed red pepper next time for a sweet and hot flavor.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PANCETTA & PEARL ONIONS
Like many others I am not a fan of brussel sprouts, never made them, never even think of them as a possibility for a dinner vegetable. But this recipe changed my thinking! The dish was brought to Thanksgiving dinner and there was nothing left! The recipe serves 12, but I'm sure it can be easily halved. This is most definitely best when served immediately, but it was just great reheated in the microwave for about a minute and a half.

Steps:
- Place a rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 450°F. Toss brussels sprouts and oil in a large bowl to coat; season with salt and pepper. Roast brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet 15 minutes, then shake baking sheet to loosen them. Continue to roast until deeply browned all over, 5-10 minutes longer. Reduce oven temperature to 350° and roast another 10 minutes. Shake baking sheet again, then roast brussels sprouts until the tip of a small knife easily slides through, 5-10 minutes longer (total cook time will be 35-45 minutes).
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once butter starts to foam, add pistachios and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, until nuts are golden brown and butter solids are browned, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer nuts to paper towels; let cool. Coarsely chop.
- Meanwhile, bring date molasses, honey, and lime juice to a simmer in same skillet over medium heat (this will happen quickly), swirling pan to emulsify. Add 1 Tbsp. water and swirl to emulsify, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add brussels sprouts; toss to coat.
- Transfer brussels sprouts to a platter. Toss nuts, lime zest, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl to combine; scatter over brussels sprouts. Serve with lime wedges if desired.
- Do Ahead: Brussels sprouts, glaze (without water), and pistachio mixture can all be made 3 hours ahead. Do not combine. Reheat glaze over medium heat until bubbling before adding water and brussels sprouts.
Tips:
- Choose firm and brightly colored Brussels sprouts. Avoid any that are wilted or have brown spots.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts. Cut off the stem end and any yellow or wilted leaves.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature. This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior.
- Add some sweetness to the dish. This can be done with pears, honey, or maple syrup.
- Add some crunch to the dish. This can be done with nuts, seeds, or croutons.
- Season the dish with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the dish warm. Roasted Brussels sprouts are best enjoyed when they are fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Roasted Brussels sprouts with pears and pistachios is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new way to enjoy Brussels sprouts, give this recipe a try!
