Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 250 grams Wild mushrooms (such as chanterelles, shiitakes, or creminis)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 250 milliliters Heavy cream
• 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Trim the stems of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with half of the salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly and arrange them cut-side down.

Step 3

Roast the Brussels sprouts in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.

Step 4

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them thinly if they are large.

Step 5

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and become golden brown.

Step 7

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet with the mushrooms. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.

Step 8

Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh thyme leaves.

Step 9

Season the sauce with the remaining salt and black pepper, then let it simmer for 2-3 more minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 10

When the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to the skillet with the mushroom cream sauce. Gently toss everything together to coat the sprouts evenly.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle in the lemon zest for a bright, zesty finish.

Step 12

Serve the roasted Brussels sprouts with wild mushrooms and cream immediately as a warm side dish. Enjoy!
