Caramelized Brussels Sprouts
Brussel sprout haters will be sure to change their mind after enjoying this fantastic dish.
Ingredients
Directions
- Cut off the brown ends of the brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Cut them in half. Slice a medium onion in to long strips.
- Coat the bottom of your skillet with olive oil and set on medium-high heat.
- Add onions and brussels sprouts and stir. Make sure to coat as much of the vegetables as possible. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garlic is great in this as well.
- Constantly stir sprouts and onions to avoid burning.
- Brussels sprouts will wilt and leaves will turn black and brown this is a good thing.
- Continue to cook and stir veggies until onions are clear and sprouts are soft.
- Serve hot. No butter needed!

I personally use ghee to cook these in instead of olive oil as the ghee gives it a nuttier flavor.

This is really a 5+. I loved it before but then I added some lemon juice after is was finished cooking. These puppies are even good cold!

this is a really good recipe for a food that has a bad reputation. It was served for Thanksgiving and my 2 year old grandson loved it as well as his parents.

Do you boil the sprouts first, and then cook with the onions? Wouldn't they take a long time to cook if not boiled first?
