  5. 1/4 tspfreshly ground pepper
  6. 4 ozcoarsely chopped dried cranberries

Cooking Instructions

20 mins
  1. 1

    Note: To get rid of the bitter taste of Brussels sprouts parboil them for about 30 seconds or brine them in slightly salted for about 10 minutes just before you cook them.

  2. 2

    Bring a pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Blanch your Brussels sprouts for 30 seconds, drain,cool and dry thoroughly.

  3. 3

    Slice the Brussels sprouts using the thinnest slicing disk of a food processor. You can also slice them thinly with a knife or a mandolin.

  4. 4

    Heat sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the pecans/walnuts. Cook, stirring continually, until the nuts just start to darken in color and begin to give off a toasted aroma, approximately 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the butter to the pan and stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Once the butter has melted, add the Brussels sprouts, salt and pepper and cook, stirring continually and the sprouts are just tender, approximately 3-5 minutes.

  7. 7

    Remove the pan from the heat; add the cranberries, toss and serve.
