Creamy Braised Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients List
-
¼ cup butter
-
1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered
-
¼ teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or to taste
Instructions
-
Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
-
Pour in the cream, bring to a simmer, then lower the heat, cover, and cook for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sprouts are tender and easily pierced with a fork. The cream will reduce and take on a creamy, beige hue.
-
Remove the cover and stir in fresh lemon juice. Let the sprouts simmer for a few more minutes until the cream thickens and coats the sprouts.
-
Adjust the seasoning with more salt and lemon juice to taste, then serve.
