Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 2 stalks Green onions
Instructions
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellowed outer leaves. Slice each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise.
Mince the garlic cloves and thinly slice the green onions, keeping the green and white parts separate.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the halved Brussels sprouts to the pan with the cut side down. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook for 4–5 minutes without stirring until the cut sides are golden brown and caramelized.
Flip the Brussels sprouts and stir them lightly. Add the minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions, stirring constantly for 1 minute to prevent the garlic from burning.
Lower the heat to medium and pour in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Stir well to ensure the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated in the sauce.
Sprinkle in the red chili flakes and continue stirring for another 2–3 minutes until the Brussels sprouts are tender but still crisp.
Remove the pan from heat and garnish with the green parts of the sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately as a side dish or over rice for a heartier meal.
