Ingredients
- 700 g (1½lb) Brussels sprouts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3 garlic cloves crushed
- 1 tsp chilli flakes / red pepper flakes
- salt and pepper
- 2 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Using a sharp knife, halve the brussels sprouts.
- Snap off any outer leaves that might be browning and discard. Finely chop/mince the garlic and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet or pan over medium high heat.
- Add a tablespoon of olive oil then add the halved brussels sprouts. Season with salt and pepper.
- Allow to sauté, tossing regularly, allowing the sprouts to caramelize.
- Once crisp tender, stir in the butter, garlic and chilli flakes (I use up to a half teaspoon for a nice spicy bite).
- Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the sprouts are cooked through (they're done when the tip of a sharp knife can easily be inserted).
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice then serve.
