Skillet Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Glaze

---

Ingredients

• 1 lb Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and cut in half
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
• * if you don’t have balsamic glaze, 1-2 tbsp of lemon juice and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese is also delicious!

Instructions

1. Start with a cold pan and arrange sprouts cut side down in a 12 inch, non stick skillet.
2. Drizzle oil evenly over sprouts and cover the pan with a lid.
3. Place pan over medium high heat and allow to cook, covered for 5 minutes. Check and make sure they have turned bright green and the cut sides are starting to brown.
4. Uncover and continue to cook 2-3 minutes more, or until well browned and fork tender. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Toss to coat and serve hot.
