Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Place the Brussels sprouts cut-side down in the skillet. Cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the cut sides are golden brown and caramelized, stirring occasionally after the cut sides are seared.
Season the Brussels sprouts with salt and black pepper, then transfer them to a plate and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the unsalted butter to the same skillet. Stir continuously as the butter melts and begins to foam. Keep stirring until the butter turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma, about 2-3 minutes, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the minced garlic to the browned butter and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Return the Brussels sprouts to the skillet and toss them in the browned butter until evenly coated. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Turn off the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the Brussels sprouts. Toss one final time to combine.
Transfer to a serving dish and serve warm.
