Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pounds Brussels sprouts - washed, trimmed and cut in half
  • 2 tablespoon Butter
  • 1.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
  • 8 cloves Garlic - minced
  • 1 lemon - zest and juice
  • salt + pepper - to taste

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until oil is warm and shimmering.
  • Add the Brussels sprouts, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, some caramelization is ok. 
  • Sauté until fork tender, continuing to stir occasionally. I like my Brussels sprouts on the softer side, so I cooked mine for a little longer (approx. 20 minutes).
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the butter, chili flakes, and garlic. Mix well.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
