Brussels Sprouts and Pistachios

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.

SO Bright and Gorgeous!!

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!
