Yummy Brussels Sprouts
(yeah, I know, you don't think you like them. Well, this recipe is
super yummy, and healthy. Don't be a wimp, just give it a try!)
Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 package of brussels sprouts (about 1.5 lb)
3 tbsp walnut oil (vegetable oil works too)
1 shallot (1/3 yellow onion works)
1/2 cup chicken stock
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper
1) Heat the walnut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2) Wash and slice in half the brussels sprouts, set aside. Finely chop the shallot. Add the shallot to the pan.
3) Cook until the shallot is soft, about 2 minutes. Then add the brussels sprouts. Add more oil to coat.
4) Cook the brussels sprouts and shallot until the majority of the
brussels sprouts are browned and starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
Raise the heat to medium-high if you prefer them a little more cooked
(I do!).
5) Add the chicken stock to the pan, have at medium-high heat. Let
it simmer until the stock has reduced and the brussels sprouts are
softened and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.
6) Once cooked to desired doneness, remove from heat and add
preferred amount of lemon juice to the pan, stir. Salt and pepper to
taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!
And then... you can thank me later. ;)
