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.

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.

I would have liked the recipe to include more detailed instructions on how to roast the Brussels sprouts.

These Brussels sprouts were a bit too crispy for my taste, but the flavor was still good.

These were easy to make and turned out great! I used a little less oil than the recipe called for and they were still crispy and delicious.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a winner. The Brussels sprouts are always perfectly roasted and the balsamic glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

These Brussels sprouts were a hit! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a delicious caramelized flavor. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly.
