As much as I love my go-to brussel sprouts, I wanted to try something new. Instead of chopping up the brussel sprouts I peeled the leaves off individually. This gave them such a light a deelish texture.I really loved this dish, but then again I have never met a brussel sprout I didn’t like. 🙂 They have such an amazing nutty flavor that I love to pair with nuts. I chose pistachios this time over my usual pine nuts. Loved it! This is also an incredibly fast cooking recipe once the sprouts have been prepped.
Brussels Sprouts and Pistachios
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, or other neutral oil
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1 pound brussel sprouts, trimmed, and leaves peeled
1/2 cup shelled unsalted natural pistachios
juice from 1 lemon
salt and pepper
In a non-stick skillet heat oil over medium-high heat and saute shallot for 30 seconds. Add Brussels sprout leaves and pistachios, and sauté until leaves begin to soften but are still bright green, about 3 minutes. Drizzle lemon juice over and season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
