Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any damaged outer leaves. Slice them in half lengthwise.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts, placing them cut side down in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Cook the Brussels sprouts for about 5-7 minutes without stirring, allowing them to brown on the cut side.
Step 4
Once browned, toss the Brussels sprouts in the skillet and continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still slightly crisp.
Step 5
Remove the Brussels sprouts from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 7
Stir in the Dijon mustard, heavy cream, honey, and lemon juice. Mix well and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 8
Add the Brussels sprouts back into the skillet and toss to coat them evenly in the mustard sauce.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If desired, sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish.
Step 10
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy it on its own!
