2
pounds Brussels sprouts, halved lengthwise
-
1
tablespoon rice oil or olive oil
-
7
cloves garlic, minced
-
3
tablespoons butter
-
1/2
bunch fresh thyme (about 10 sprigs)
-
1
large sprig fresh rosemary, halved
-
2
teaspoons fennel seeds
-
1 1/4
teaspoons kosher salt or 1 tsp. salt
-
1
tablespoon sherry or white wine vinegar
1. In a large saucepan cook Brussels sprouts, uncovered, in enough lightly salted boiling water to cover for 3 minutes; drain well. Pat dry with paper towels.
2. Place a very large heavy skillet or saute pan over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add oil and garlic; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add half the butter. Increase heat to medium-high; carefully arrange half the sprouts, cut-sides down, in the hot skillet. Top with half the thyme, rosemary, fennel seeds, and salt. Cook, uncovered, 3 to 4 minutes or until the sprouts are well-browned. Remove sprouts from pan. Repeat with remaining butter, sprouts, thyme, rosemary, fennel seeds, and salt.
3. Return all sprouts to skillet along with sherry. Quickly toss to distribute flavors. Makes 8 (1/2-cup) servings plus leftovers.
- Make Ahead Tip Step 1 may be done 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate the well-drained Brussels sprouts.

Yummy! My husband thought they were the best he'd ever had.

(I use a little less garlic, sautee it then take it out while everything else is getting roasted & add it back in at the end of step 2 so it doesn't burn.)
