Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic

    Mince the garlic cloves finely and set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Green Onions

    Slice the green onions into thin rounds, separating the green part from the white part.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Brussels Sprouts

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the halved Brussels sprouts, cut side down. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are browned and crispy.

  2. 5

    Make the Garlic Soy Glaze

    In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, minced garlic, honey, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes.

  3. 6

    Combine and Toss

    Once the Brussels sprouts are crispy, pour the garlic soy glaze over them. Toss well to ensure the Brussels sprouts are coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly.

Serving

  1. 7

    Add Toppings

    Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle sesame seeds and the green parts of the green onions over the Brussels sprouts.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and enjoy hot as a side or a healthy snack.
