Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 medium Lemon
Instructions
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any damaged outer leaves. Slice each sprout in half lengthwise.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Allow the butter to melt and foam slightly.
Place the Brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer in the skillet. Let them cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and caramelized.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the sprouts, then stir to flip them over. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the sprouts are tender but still slightly crisp.
Push the Brussels sprouts to one side of the skillet and drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the empty space. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the oil and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, making sure not to burn the garlic.
Toss the Brussels sprouts with the garlic mixture to evenly coat them. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the sprouts and give them a final toss.
Adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed. Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy as a standalone snack.
