Pan Roasted Brussel Sprouts

roastedbrusselsprouts

Brussel sprouts seem to be a vegetable that folks either love or strongly dislike. This method of preparation however adds a whole new dimension to the subtle flavor of the basic sprout. By pan roasting the sprouts until they become caramelized and golden brown, the natural sweetness of the vegetable is enhanced creating a delicious side dish. 

Although I prefer this recipe simply as it is, you could also add some grated Parmesan cheese before serving. These sprouts are delicious hot or at room temperature.

Buon Appetito!
