Ingredients
-
2 1/2 tablespoons
honey
-
1 tablespoon
Sriracha sauce
-
2 tablespoons
lime juice
-
1 1/2 pounds
Brussels sprouts
-
2 tablespoons
olive oil
-
salt and pepper
Directions
-
In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the honey, Sriracha, and lime juice. Set aside.
-
Gently cut off the very end of each Brussels Sprout, leaving most of it intact (this will keep the sprouts from falling apart while they are being cooked).
-
Next cut each one in half length-wise.
-
Add 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Place the cut Brussels Sprouts flat side down for about 5 minutes and let them brown. (Be sure to not overcrowd. If all the Brussels Sprouts don’t fit in the pan, sauté a second batch.)
-
Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then rotate the Brussels Sprouts onto their other side in the pan and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Sauté for 3 more minutes.
-
Drizzle with the honey, Sriracha, lime mixture, and cook about 2 more minutes in the pan.
-
Slide the Brussels Sprouts onto a serving dish and dig in!
NOTE - The Brussels Sprouts should be a little crunchy. If they cook too long they will be bitter.
