Best 6 Sherry Balsamic Caramelized Brussels Sprouts Recipes

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Prepare the brussels sprouts by peeling off 2 to 3 of the dark outer leaves; trim stem ends.
• In a Dutch oven or 12" skillet heat the sugar over medium high heat until sugar begins to melt, shaking pan occasionally to heat sugar evenly.
• Once sugar starts to melt, reduce heat and cook until sugar begins to turn brown.
• Add butter; stir until melted.
• Add the vinegars.
• Cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Add the water and salt.
• Bring to boiling; add the sprouts.
• Return to boiling; reduce heat.
• Simmer, covered, for 6 minutes.
• Uncover; cook about 15 minutes longer or until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the sprouts are coated with a golden glaze, stirring occasionally.
• Keep warm until serving.

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Add olive oil and the cranberry pear white balsamic vinegar to a non-stick skillet. I used a 12-inch skillet, so the sprouts had room to cook. If you pile in too many, they will steam rather than caramelize.
• Using medium-high heat and add the sprouts that have been cleaned and sliced in halves or quarters if on the large size. I added about 3 cups.
• Cook approximately 10 minutes until the sprouts are fork tender and the edges and sauce is caramelizing. The vinegar will get nice and gooey and sticky.
• Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese if desired and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts and cook until slightly tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until onion is just tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Add Brussels sprouts; cook and stir until sprouts are tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Mix balsamic vinegar, butter, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder into Brussels sprouts mixture; toss to coat.

SHERRY-GLAZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pearl onions and cook until tender and the skins peel off easily, about 2 minutes; drain and rinse under cold water. Trim the root ends and pinch the opposite ends to remove the skins.
• Combine the brussels sprouts, 1 cup water, 2 tablespoons butter, the sugar and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the brussels sprouts are bright green and crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Add the pearl onions and cook until the skillet is almost dry, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the sherry and thyme. Cook, tossing, until the vegetables are glazed, about 2 minutes; season with salt. Top with chives.

CARAMELIZED BALSAMIC GLAZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Spray a large 12-inch skillet with olive oil, add in the diced bacon and heat over medium heat. Stir and cook the bacon for 5 minutes.
• Add in the chopped onion, stir and cook until the bacon is crispy and the onions are soft and translucent and the edges are golden.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon and onions to a paper towel lined plate, leaving the bacon fat still in the skillet.
• In a single layer place the halved brussels sprouts, cut-side down in the skillet before adding the rest. Cover and allow the steam to help to cook the sprouts. Let the brussels sprouts cook for 5-8 minutes this way before stirring.
• Add the bacon and onions back into the skillet with the minced garlic. Stir and continue to cook the sprouts until fork tender but not too soft. Season with a little bit of kosher salt and a lot of black pepper, to taste.
• Drizzle in two tablespoons of the balsamic glaze, stir and serve hot with a sprinkle of minced parsley.
