Ingredients
-
1 pound
Brussels Sprouts, halved lengthwise
-
3 tablespoons
Olive oil
-
1/2 teaspoon
salt or to taste
-
pepper to taste
-
1/2 cup
sultanas
-
1/2 cup
walnuts, chopped and halved
-
1
Meyer lemon
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the halved brussels sprouts on a baking pan. Sprinkle with olive oil, salt (kosher or sea salt) and pepper and use your clean hands to mix thoroughly. Place the brussels sprouts in the middle of the oven.
-
After about 15 minutes, turn the brussels sprouts with a wide spatula, checking for caramelization. After another 15 minutes, turn the sprouts again and squeeze the juice of 1/2 of the Meyer lemon over the sprouts. Add the sultanas and walnuts.
-
After another 10 minutes, turn the mixture with a spatula, and squeeze on the juice of the other lemon half. After another 5 minutes, the lemon juice should be evaporated. Check to see how caramelized the sprouts are, and if done to your liking, remove from oven and serve.
