Creamy Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1
    medium onion, quartered and thinly sliced
  • 3
    cloves garlic, minced
  • 3
    tablespoons butter
  • 2
    pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved, or green beans, trimmed
  • 1
    teaspoon snipped fresh thyme or 1/4 tsp. dried thyme, crushed
  • 3/4
    cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 3/4
    cup whipping cream
  • 1/4
    teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2
    cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese or Pecorino Romano cheese
  • 1/4
    teaspoon salt
  • 1/8
    teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly coat a 1-1/2-quart oval gratin baking dish or baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

2. In a 12-inch skillet cook onion and garlic in butter over medium heat for 3 minutes or until softened. Stir in Brussels sprouts and thyme. Cook for 4 minutes or until onions begin to brown. Add broth. Bring to boiling. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes or until broth is nearly evaporated. Add whipping cream and nutmeg. Cook for 4 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Stir in half of the cheese, all of the salt, and pepper. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

3. Bake, uncovered, 20 to 25 minutes or until Brussels sprouts are tender. Makes 8 to 10 servings.

First try with this recipe, and it was very successful. Everyone took seconds. I omitted the nutmeg (my husband thinks it tastes like soap!) but the dish was still flavourful. Easy to do, too! The hardest part is prepping the sprouts!

This our favorite brussels sprouts recipe. I use evaporated milk to lower the fat content and it still tastes great.
