Ingredients

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 medium Garlic cloves
  • 1 medium Lemon
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cleaning the Brussels sprouts: trim the ends, remove any yellowing outer leaves, and cut them in half lengthwise.

Step 2

Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.

Step 3

Zest the lemon and then cut it in half to juice it. Set the zest and juice aside separately.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with the olive oil, minced garlic, the zest of one lemon, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the Brussels sprouts are thoroughly coated.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to medium heat, ensuring the grates are clean and oiled to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Place the Brussels sprouts on skewers, or use a grilling basket for easy handling.

Step 7

Grill the Brussels sprouts for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have a slight char.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the Brussels sprouts from the grill and transfer them to a serving bowl.

Step 9

Drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a delicious side dish or a component of a Whole30 compliant meal.
