Steamed Brussels Sprouts Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until browned and crisp. With a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with a paper towel and set aside.
• Add the onion and shallots to the pan and saute for 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
• Add the Brussels sprouts (including any loose leaves), 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper, toss well, and cover. Cook for 5 minutes
• Add the butter and cook uncovered for 5 more minutes, until the sprouts are tender.
• Stir in the cooked bacon and balsamic vinegar and stir to deglaze the pan. Sprinkle lightly with fleur de sel and serve hot.

Steps:

• In a medium pot with tight-fitting lid, set a steamer basket over 1 1/2 inches water.
• Add Brussels sprouts and steam over high heat until tender, about 10 minutes.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add salt& cook, watching carefully, until butter sizzles, browns slightly, and gives off a nutty aroma.
• Squeeze the juice from the lemon halves into the pan and add the zest.
• Stir in the Brussels sprouts and cook, shaking the pan occasionally until warmed through.

Steps:

• Remove and discard any loose or discolored leaves from the Brussels sprouts. Trim the stems flush with the bottom of the sprouts and cut each sprout in half.
• Pour about an inch of water into a skillet or wok and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Put the Brussels sprouts in a steamer basket and season with salt. Set the steamer basket over the boiling water and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the Brussels sprouts. Transfer the sprouts to a plate, sprinkle with black pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Cut off the stem end of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellowing outer leaves. Cut each Brussels sprout in half from top to bottom. Place the Brussels sprouts, water and salt into a 3 to 4-quart saucier and cover. Place over high heat and cook for 5 minutes or until tender. Remove and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Fit a large pot with a steamer insert; fill with water to bottom of insert. Cover, and bring to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts, and season with salt; steam, tossing halfway through, until bright green and just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper; toss with butter and chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over high heat until butter is melted and begins to brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir Brussels sprouts and lemon juice into butter and oil; cook, stirring constantly, until sprouts are just heated through and starting to soften, about 45 seconds. Remove from heat.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Place butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a heavy bowl, with lemon zest and juice, dill, garlic, salt, and pepper. Beat until well combined. Transfer herbed butter to a piece of parchment or wax paper, and roll into a cylinder, twisting both ends to secure. Place in refrigerator until ready to use.
• Place a saucepan with steamer insert and 1 1/2 inches water over medium-high heat. Trim sprouts of outer leaves, and cut a small X in each base with a paring knife. When water in steamer is boiling, add sprouts and lemon quarters. Cook until sprouts are tender and bright green, tossing occasionally, about 10 minutes.
• When sprouts are done, discard lemon, and transfer to serving bowl. Cut disks of herbed butter, and toss with sprouts. Serve sprinkled with fresh dill.

Steps:

• Blanch the Brussels sprouts in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes, and refresh in cold water. Cut in half and transfer to a bowl. Add the thyme, vinegar, and pepper, toss to coat, and serve.

Steps:

• Tip the sprouts into a pan and add a couple of cm water and a pinch of salt - a large pan works better so they're not piled up too high. Cover and bring the water to the boil, turn down to a simmer and cook with the lid on for 3- 5 mins depending on size.
• Test with a sharp knife to see if they are cooked through. If not, cook for a little longer and test again.
• Drain and tip the sprouts into a bowl. Serve with a knob of butter, if you wish.
