Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 whole Lemon
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, or prepare your grill pan over medium-high heat on the stove.
Step 2
While the grill is heating, trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure all sprouts are coated evenly.
Step 4
Mince the garlic cloves and set aside. Zest and then juice the lemon, keeping them separate.
Step 5
Place the Brussels sprouts cut side down on the preheated grill or grill pan. Close the grill lid or cover with a lid, cooking for about 4-5 minutes.
Step 6
Flip the Brussels sprouts and grill for another 4-5 minutes, or until they are tender and have a slight char.
Step 7
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
Step 8
Once the Brussels sprouts are done cooking, transfer them back to the large mixing bowl and pour the lemon-garlic dressing over them. Toss to coat.
Step 9
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle it over the dressed Brussels sprouts.
Step 10
Serve immediately as a ketogenic-friendly side dish or appetizer, enjoying the harmony of flavors and the vibrant freshness of the lemon-garlic dressing.
