Halle, I am definitely making this for Thanksgiving–if not before–and adding some dried cranberries to it for an extra little holiday “zing”!
Yum Jan, that sounds so good…How about using fresh cranberries?
I’ve had this dish in a fancy pants restaurant in Seattle. They added walnuts as well. The extra crunch was a nice texture change.
looks so delicious!!! right up my alley!
Great idea, Julie. I’m adding cranberries AND walnuts! ;-))))
I said it was up my alley & I wasn’t kidding: cooking it now~!!! when/where do we add the paprika? smoked, hot or sweet??
typo in that recipe thanks 🙂 I used smoked paprika Andrea but you could use any. I corrected the recipe to indicate where to put it in.
well, its too late, and the Jury is back in: the Brussels were a huge hit!!! there were only 6 halves left (which I had yesterday) and I kindof doubled the recipe from your amounts for 11 ppl. and served Haricot Vert as well. Definitely make this again. Who knew the humble little brussel sprout could be THAT delicious???
