Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb burssels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 3 tbsp Private Reserve Greek extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp lemon juice, more for later
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- pinch crushed red pepper, to your liking
- grated Parmesan cheese, to your liking
Instructions
- Soak about 10 small wooden skewers in water for 30 mins or so.
- Place brussels sprouts in a mixing bow and heat in microwave for 2 mins. Let cool enough before handling.
- To the brussels sprouts add olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and pinch crushed red pepper flakes. Toss to combine.
- Now thread 3 to 4 brussels sprouts halves on each skewer (keep the stems facing the same direction).
- Heat indoor grill or griddle like this one over medium-high heat (or an outdoor grill over medium heat). Arrange skewers in one layer on heated grill. Cover and cook for 4 mins on one side (or until nicely charred), then, using a pair of tongs, turn skewers over and cook on the other side another 3 to 4 mins or so (covered).
- Transfer grilled brussels sprouts skewers to a serving platter. Squeeze a little bit more fresh lemon juice and sprinkle Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
Notes
- Cooking note 1: It's best if you use brussels sprouts that are close in shape and size so that you get even cooking.
- Cooking note 2: If you have some of the marinade (EVOO, lemon juice, garlic etc.) left in the mixing bowl
