Pan Seared Brussel Sprouts with Aioli Sauce image

Move over broccoli and make way for a reinvented vogue version of Brussel Sprouts. Who said Brussel sprouts are grandma? Pan Seared Brussel Sprouts with Aioli Sauce can be rather gourmet. Pan searing these tender little chic cabbage like vegetables in butter, olive oil, and roasted garlic and topped with creamy aioli sauce creates a cosmopolitan combination of flavor and texture to be savored and served with a variety of main dishes. Broccoli may be trumped as America's favorite vegetable with this recipe revival.
