Description
Savory charred Brussels sprouts glazed with a sweet maple and tangy mustard, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. small-medium Brussels sprouts, stems trimmed and outer leaves removed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 1/2 tablespoons spicy brown or Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 small garlic clove, grated or finely minced
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch of fine salt
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high heat, about 425 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are using wooden or bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Steam the Brussels sprouts for 4-5 minutes until they are slightly tender. Allow them to cool for 3-4 minutes after steaming.
- Thread the steamed Brussels sprouts carefully onto the skewers for even grilling.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, mustard, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt, combining all the flavors. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the glaze for later.
- Brush the delectable glaze generously onto the skewered Brussels sprouts, ensuring every sprout is coated.
- Grill the skewers for about 6 minutes, turning them occasionally until they develop beautiful char marks.
- Drizzle the reserved glaze over the grilled Brussels sprouts before serving either hot or cold.
Notes
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
