Best Brussels Sprouts

The best way to make Brussels sprouts, caramelized with honey and Dijon mustard on the stovetop.  Super easy and guaranteed to turn a Brussels sprouts hater into a fan.
It’s easy to prepare fresh sprouts.  With a sharp paring knife, trim off the ends.  Remove any outer leaves that are discolored, yellowed or brown.  Then rinse under cold water.  Cut sprouts in half, through the stem, and keep any leaves that fall off in the process.  They make the best little crispy pieces.  They’re ready to go now.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil ~ or about 2 tbsp or more of bacon drippings, instead of butter and oil
• Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper
• 1 lb Brussels sprouts
• 1 tbsp good quality Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp honey ~ I really do just eyeball the amounts of mustard and honey

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Over medium high heat, melt butter and olive oil in large nonstick pan.
2. Add brussels sprouts, toss to mix and add a sprinkle of kosher salt. Cook and stir until brown and crisp-tender
3. Stir in mustard and honey until well combined and caramelized, a minute or two. Season with salt and pepper. Enjoy.
