Time 35m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs Brussels sprouts
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus 1 tsp. kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup capers, drained
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cut the bottom stems off and peel off any bruised or wilted leaves. Cut an x into the stem end (this helps them become a bit more tender during cooking). Cut each sprout in half.
  • In a saucepan, bring 2 quarts water to a boil. Add 1 tbls. of the salt and the Brussels sprouts. Cook about 10 minutes, or tender when pierced with a knife.
  • Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium high heat and cook until golden brown. Add the sprouts. Cook for 10 minutes, constantly stirring until well caramelized on all sides.
  • Remove from heat, then add the capers, lemon juice, pepper, and the 1 teaspoons salt. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Serve and enjoy!
