1
Trim and Halve
Rinse the brussel sprouts under cold water. Trim off the stem ends and any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut each brussel sprout in half lengthwise.
2
Season
In a large bowl, toss the halved brussel sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until they are well coated.

3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Allow it to get hot, but not smoking.
4
Fry the Sprouts
Add the brussel sprouts to the skillet cut-side down. Fry them for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
5
Finish Cooking
Once the brussel sprouts are crispy, flip them and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until tender and heated through.

6
Combine Ingredients
In a bowl, add the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, minced garlic clove (minced finely), and lime juice.
7
Mix Well
Whisk the mixture until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

8
Plate the Dish
Once the brussel sprouts are cooked, transfer them to a serving platter.
9
Serve with Aioli
Serve the crispy brussel sprouts with the sweet chile aioli on the side for dipping.
