Ingredients

  • 12 ounces Brussels sprouts about 3 cups
  • 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • ¼ cup Panko bread crumbs
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash Brussels sprouts, remove any outer leaves. Cut an 'X' in the bottom of each (or cut in half if they're large).
  2. Place a steamer insert in a large pot and add about an inch of water (so it isn't touching the steamer basket)
  3. Bring the water to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cover and steam brussels sprouts 5-7 minutes or until fork tender.
  4. While brussels are simmering, melt 1 tablesppon butter in a small skillet. Add Panko bread crumbs and toast over medium heat until lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
  5. Place the brussels sprouts in a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon butter and season generously with salt & pepper. Sprinkle toasted bread crumbs over the Brussels and serve hot.

Notes

  • Frozen brussels sprouts can be used in this recipe. Prepare as directed and sprinkle with the bread crumbs.
  • Grated parmesan cheese can be added to the bread crumbs in the last minute of toasting.
  • If preferred, Brussels sprouts can be tossed with oil and roasted at 400°F for 20-25 minutes stirring after 10 minutes.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in the air fryer, in the oven, or on the stovetop until heated through.
