Suggested Recipes
-
8 cups (2 L) small brussels sprouts (1-1/2 lb/750 g), trimmed
2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
1/2 cup (125 mL) finely diced sweet red pepper
1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried thyme
1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper
Preparation:
Cut X in base of each brussels sprout. In large saucepan of boiling salted water, cover and cook brussels sprouts until tender-crisp, about 9 minutes. Drain and chill under cold water. Cut each in half; press out excess water with towel. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
In large nonstick skillet or wok, heat butter over medium heat; cook brussels sprouts, red pepper, thyme, salt and pepper, stirring often, until hot, about 5 minutes. Or in microwaveable bowl, cover and microwave at medium (50% power), stirring twice, until hot, about 10 minutes.
