Prep Time10 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Total Time20 minutes mins
Servings: 5
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 garlic cloves sliced
- 1 pound brussel sprouts halved
- 6-8 pearl onions peeled/halved (optional)
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 lemon juiced
Trim the stems off brussel sprouts and then cut in half lengthwise.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium high heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove the garlic from the pan and set aside.
Add the brussel sprouts and pearl onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until brussel sprouts are fork tender and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Once caramelized, season with salt and pepper, stir in the lemon juice and toss the garlic back in the pan.
Serve immediately.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 4-5 days in the fridge.
Make Ahead Tips: You can easily prepare the brussel sprouts in advance since trimming the ends and halving them is the most time consuming part of the recipe. I would not recommend cooking the garlic in advance since the cooking process of the garlic is what helps flavor the oil used to cook the brussel sprouts.
Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
- To make this vegan, substitute the tablespoon of butter for olive oil
- If you can't find pearl onions, you can use half a small onion, chopped
- If you prefer to skip the garlic, that's fine. You can also sprinkle garlic powder on the brussel sprouts instead.
