Brussels Sprouts In Honey Butter With Chili Flakes
Ingredients
1 pound brussels sprouts
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon honey
Sea salt
Sprinkle of red chili flakes
Preparation
1
Trim any loose or yellow leaves from the sprouts. Cut the stem off of each brussels sprout and then cut each one in half.
2
In a small bowl, mix a tablespoon of soft butter (microwave it for 10-20 seconds if it’s coming straight from the refrigerator) with a tablespoon of honey.
3
Heat a wide, flat skillet on medium heat. Add the honey butter and allow to bubble and melt then add the brussels sprouts. Arrange the brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer. Cook for about 8-10 minutes uncovered until the cut side gets golden and a little charred.
4
Sprinkle chili flakes and a generous amount of salt over the brussels sprouts.
5
Stir the brussels sprouts around so most of them turn over cut side up. Add two tablespoons of water and cook covered for another 3-5 minutes until the brussels sprouts are soft through and through. Test one by poking it with a fork.
6
Adjust for salt and spice. Serve hot.
