Brussels Sprouts With Lemon And Dill Recipes

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH LEMON AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Pour the olive oil into a small saucepan. Remove wide strips of zest from the lemon using a vegetable peeler, taking care not to get the white pith. Add the zest to the olive oil and heat over medium heat until the zest is sizzling, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Put the Brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle the olive oil over the sprouts, leaving the zest in the pan. Toss the Brussels sprouts and spread in a single layer (it's OK if some of the leaves fall off). Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Broil, stirring often, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and charred in spots, 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, thinly slice the reserved lemon zest; add to the Brussels sprouts along with the garlic during the last 2 minutes of broiling. Transfer to a bowl, add the chives and toss. Season with salt and pepper.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH DILL BUTTER

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook brussels sprouts until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly, toss with butter and dill, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with lemon wedges.

HASHED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH LEMON

Steps:

• Place lemon juice in a large bowl. Cut bottoms off sprouts, and discard. Working in batches, use a food processor fitted with the slicing blade to cut sprouts into thin slices. (If cutting by hand, halve sprouts lengthwise, and thinly slice them crosswise. The slices toward the stem end should be thinner, to help pieces cook evenly.) As you work, transfer slices into bowl with lemon juice. When all sprouts are sliced, toss them in juice and use your fingers to separate leaves. (Recipe can be prepared to this point and refrigerated, covered, for up to 3 hours.)
• When ready to serve, heat oil and butter over high heat in a skillet large enough to hold all sprouts. When very hot, add sprouts, garlic and seeds, and cook, stirring often, until sprouts are wilted and lightly cooked, but still bright green and crisp, about 4 minutes. Some leaves may brown slightly.
• Add wine and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Turn off heat, add salt and pepper to taste, and more lemon juice if desired. Stir in the lemon zest, reserving a little for top of dish. Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle with remaining zest and serve.

Stir in the lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper; cook and stir for 1 minute. Drain sprouts; add to butter mixture and toss to coat. Sprinkle with walnuts.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND ONIONS WITH DILL

Steps:

• In a 10-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté onions and Brussel sprouts, stirring, until onions begin to turn golden, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add water, sugar and salt and pepper to taste and cook, covered, over moderately low heat until vegetables are just tender, about 3 minutes. If any liquid remains, boil mixture until nearly all liquid is evaporated and stir in minced dill. Garnish vegetables with dill sprigs.

• Line a large baking pan with foil and spray with non-stick spray.

• Place a saucepan with steamer insert and 1 1/2 inches water over medium-high heat. Trim sprouts of outer leaves, and cut a small X in each base with a paring knife. When water in steamer is boiling, add sprouts and lemon quarters. Cook until sprouts are tender and bright green, tossing occasionally, about 10 minutes.
• When sprouts are done, discard lemon, and transfer to serving bowl. Cut disks of herbed butter, and toss with sprouts. Serve sprinkled with fresh dill.
