BRUSSELS SPROUTS IN SPICY ALMOND BUTTER
Sweet and spicy seared brussels sprouts covered in an almond butter sauce with honey, cayenne pepper, and garlic.
Brussels Sprouts usually have kids running from the kitchen table. But I have something here that will make them change their minds about these yummy little cabbages.
WHAT YOU NEED
brussels sprouts
smooth almond butter
soy sauce
honey
lemon juice
cayenne pepper
olive oil
minced garlic
HOW TO MAKE IT
Trim about 1/4-inch from the bottom of each sprout. Slice each sprout center in half.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together almond butter, 1 1/2 tbsp water, soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, and cayenne and set aside.
Heat oil in a medium nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and halved sprout centers and saute until light brown and wilted, about 4 to 6 minutes.
Add about 2 tbsp water to pan and stir. Reduce heat to medium, pour in almond butter mixture and stir until sprouts are coated. Cook until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Remove from heat and serve immediately.
