ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATES & VANILLA-PECAN BUTTER RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Combine the butter and vanilla bean seeds in a small bowl. Fold in the pecans and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Note: You can make this several days ahead of time. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the Brussels sprouts in a medium roasting pan and toss with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven until lightly golden brown, 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, add the pomegranate molasses and stir to combine. Return to the oven and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes longer. Transfer the sprouts to a large bowl, add the pomegranate seeds and lime and orange zests. Transfer to a platter and top with some of the Vanilla-Pecan butter.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH TOASTED PECANS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, toast the pecans over medium heat until fragrant and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Meanwhile, remove any wilted outer leaves from the brussels sprouts and cut off the stems. Soak the sprouts in cold water and drain well.
• Using the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until bubbly. Add the brussels sprouts and seasoned salt. Stir and cook, tossing frequently, until barely tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add the brown sugar, pepper and reserved pecans to the skillet. Toss the brussels sprouts to coat and cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar is melted and the brussels sprouts are coated in the melted sugar and pecans, about 2 more minutes. Transfer to a warm serving dish and serve immediately.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS IN GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt butter and olive oil in a medium skillet (over medium-high heat) until butter is foamy.
• Reduce heat to medium, add smashed garlic and cook until lightly browned.
• Remove garlic and discard.
• Add sprouts cut side down, cover, and cook without stirring on medium-low heat 10-15 minutes or until tender when pierced with a knife.
• The cut side of the sprouts should get nice and browned, with a nutty, buttery flavor enhanced by garlic.
• Top with freshly grated parmesan and salt& pepper to taste.

ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS WITH HONEY & PECANS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Start by slicing the ends off of each sprout and cutting them in half. Drizzle on about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, just enough to coat each sprout. Toss in a good-sized pinch of kosher salt and ground pepper. Gently stir the sprouts to coat them in oil, but be careful not to stir too vigorously as to break them apart. Turn the sprout out on to a cookie sheet lined with non-stick aluminum foil. Roast at 400°F for about 20 to 30 minutes, using a spatula to turn them half way through cooking. While they're roasting, add 1 tablespoon of butter to a small saucepan, followed by 1 tablespoon honey. Warm the honey butter on low heat until combined. Add 1/4 cup of chopped pecans to a small cookie sheet and roast them along with the sprouts for about 4 to 5 minutes until they are perfectly roasted. Remove the sprouts and pour on the honey butter and top with the pecans and gently toss.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WALNUTS AND POMEGRANATE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss brussels sprouts with the olive oil. Season well with the salt and black pepper and toss again. Spread everything evenly on a sheet pan cut-side-down and roast until crisp and deeply golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sprouts halfway through to ensure even browning.
• Meanwhile, toast the walnuts in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to ensure they don't burn, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• When the brussels sprouts are done roasting, toss them with the toasted walnuts and the pomegranate seeds. Drizzle with the pomegranate molasses (about 1 teaspoon or so), if using. Season with flaky salt.
