Steps

20 mins

1

First, cut the stems of the Brussels sprouts and the outer green leaves, then half and set aside
2

Prepare the other ingredients by dicing the red bell pepper, zesting the lemon or lime, and mincing the garlic cloves
3

In a flat bottomed sautee pan, heat the butter and olive oil on high
4

Turn the heat down just so you can place the Brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer in the pan, then increase heat to high, and let cook for about five minutes until slightly browned on the bottoms
5

Add the red pepper and stir
6

Add the sugar, lemon or lime juice, salt and pepper and stir, let sit one minute
7

Add the minced garlic and stir (if you need more olive oil, add a dash)
8

At this point, it's all about tasting while you cook. The Brussels sprouts should cook until they are tender and no longer bitter at all. Salt and pepper to taste throughout. Once they are cooked and taste almost buttery, then they are done. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve
