Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 125 milliliters Balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Erythritol
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the Brussels sprouts. Trim the stems and remove any discolored outer leaves. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half, lengthwise.

Step 2

In a large saucepan or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the halved Brussels sprouts to the pan. Arrange them cut side down to ensure maximum crispness. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes without stirring, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust.

Step 4

After the bottoms are nicely crisp, sprinkle the sprouts with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir gently to coat the Brussels sprouts evenly with the seasoning.

Step 5

Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes until the Brussels sprouts are crispy and tender.

Step 6

While the Brussels sprouts are cooking, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and erythritol. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 8-10 minutes or until the mixture thickens to a syrupy consistency.

Step 7

Once the Brussels sprouts are cooked, transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 8

Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the crispy Brussels sprouts and toss to coat.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately for the best crispy texture.
