Caramelized Balsamic Glazed Brussels Sprouts Recipes

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Add olive oil and the cranberry pear white balsamic vinegar to a non-stick skillet. I used a 12-inch skillet, so the sprouts had room to cook. If you pile in too many, they will steam rather than caramelize.
• Using medium-high heat and add the sprouts that have been cleaned and sliced in halves or quarters if on the large size. I added about 3 cups.
• Cook approximately 10 minutes until the sprouts are fork tender and the edges and sauce is caramelizing. The vinegar will get nice and gooey and sticky.
• Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese if desired and serve.
