Seared Brussels Sprouts image

For delicious brussels sprouts, cook them in very hot oil. The cut side will sear, as will some of the leaves, resulting in a toasty, charred flavor that is irresistible, especially to children. Don't use an expensive olive oil for this dish. It should not have a strong flavor.

Time 15m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound brussels sprouts
3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Trim the ends off the brussels sprouts, and cut in half lengthwise through the stem end.
  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat. When the skillet is just short of smoking, place the brussels sprouts cut side down in the oil. Turn the heat to medium, and sear on one side until nicely browned, about three minutes. Turn the brussels sprouts over and cook on the other side until nicely browned and tender, three to five minutes. Some of the leaves can be charred dark brown or black. Remove from the heat, season with salt and pepper and serve.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Brussels sprouts didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked.

The Brussels sprouts were a bit too charred for my taste.

These Brussels sprouts were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more seasoning next time.
