Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves
- 1 unit Lemon
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Start by trimming the ends of the Brussels sprouts and removing any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Slice each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet in a single layer, cut side down, and season with salt and pepper.
Let the Brussels sprouts cook undisturbed for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cut side is golden brown and crispy.
While they cook, zester the lemon to get fresh lemon zest and slice the lemon in half.
Once the Brussels sprouts are crispy, toss them gently in the skillet to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Squeeze half of the lemon over the Brussels sprouts and gently toss again to combine the flavors.
Transfer the cooked Brussels sprouts to a serving dish. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and lemon zest.
Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your Keto Crispy Fried Brussels Sprouts!
