1 tbsp. butter
Begin by putting a saute pan on the stove at medium heat with
the butter. Prepare the sprouts by cutting in half down their
length. When the butter is bubbling, lay the Brussels sprout
halves face down in the pan so their faces caramelize. Don't
touch them for at least five minutes. You can peek. If they are
getting brown, you are doing okay. Let them go to the desired
brownness. You can add a little salt and pepper to the top
of the sprouts (so the pepper won't burn). When they are brown
toss them around the pan, you may wish to caramelize the other
side a bit too. Top with a little grated fresh Romano cheese
if you like.
Depending on whether you start with fresh, frozen or leftover
sprouts, you may choose to blanch them before sauteing.(more) | print recipe
