Pan-Browned Brussels Sprouts

Pan-Browned Brussels Sprouts

Recipe from Epicurious.com

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 2 large garlic cloves
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons pine nuts

PREPARATION

Trim Brussels sprouts and halve lengthwise. Cut garlic into very thin slices. In a 10-inch heavy skillet (preferably well-seasoned cast iron) melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil over moderate heat and cook garlic, stirring, until pale golden. Transfer garlic with a slotted spoon to a small bowl. Reduce heat to low and arrange sprouts in skillet, cut sides down, in one layer. Sprinkle sprouts with pine nuts and salt to taste. Cook sprouts, without turning, until crisp-tender and undersides are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
With tongs transfer sprouts to a plate, browned sides up. Add garlic and remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to skillet and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until pine nuts are more evenly pale golden, about 1 minute. Spoon mixture over sprouts and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
