Grilled Brussels Sprouts
Description
This recipe starts by whisking olive oil with lemon juice, kosher salt, black pepper, dried Italian seasoning, and minced garlic to create a marinade. Halved Brussels sprouts are coated and refrigerated to absorb flavors for at least 10 minutes. The sprouts are then skewered and grilled over medium-high heat until browned and tender, turning every few minutes.
The grilling method imparts a mild smoky char while preserving the sprouts’ natural texture, softened but retaining some bite. The herbaceous parsley garnish and lemon wedges complement their slight bitterness and the marinade's acidity.
You can serve the sprouts on skewers or removed from them, and they pair well with grilled meats or as a vegetable course. Using similarly sized sprouts ensures even cooking.
Choose Brussels sprouts of uniform size for consistent grilling results.The sprouts can be served on skewers or removed, depending on preference.If skewers are not available, a grilling basket is a suitable alternative to cook the sprouts.
