How to Cook Brussels Sprouts

  • Wash 1½ lbs sprouts. Cut off the ends and discard outer leaves. Slice sprouts into halves, or larger sprouts into 3rds.
  • Heat 3-4 Tbsp oil in a skillet on high heat–you want the skillet to be hot to sear the sprouts–and don’t be shy with the olive oil.
  • Add Brussels sprouts. They should start to sizzle and pop right away. Let set before stirring to get a seared edge. Turn sprouts and continue to sear.
  • After 4-5 minutes, stir in onion and garlic and continue to cook on high to med. high heat, searing and turning another 3-4 minutes.
  • Then reduce heat to medium and add water. Add seasoning.
  • Stir, cover, and let cook 4-5 minutes.
  • Then turn off heat, stir in lemon zest and lemon juice, and serve.
