Ingredients
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 3/4 lb Brussels sprouts washed, trimmed and halved
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 3 tbsp salted butter
- Additional salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Lay the Brussels sprouts in a single layer, cut-side down, and let cook undisturbed until browned, about 4 minutes.
- Toss the sprouts quickly a few times and then re-arrange in a single layer, cut-side up. Continue to cook until the undersides are browned and the sprouts are tender, another 5 minutes or so.
- Transfer to a medium bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Add the butter to the hot pan and let cook until browned and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Drizzle over the sprouts and season to taste.
Notes
