Gingered Brussels Sprouts

A recent recipe request looking for dishes for 1 or 2 reminded me of an old cookbook dedicated to that topic. Though I have not made this in a while, it was one of my favorite sides. Posting it here so it doesn't get lost and to share it with others. The flavors in this side work quite nicely with a simple roasted or grilled meat or fish.
SERVES 2
Ingredients
- 10 ounces Brussels sprouts (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup water or fat free broth
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1/2-1 teaspoon Splenda granular or sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions
1
If you are using fresh brussels sprouts, trim off bottoms and remove any loose or discolored outer leaves. Rinse in warm water and drain.2
In a heavy saucepan, combine everything save the sprouts and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and let the liquid simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add sprouts, cover and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender. For fresh sprouts, cooking time is about 10 minutes. For frozen, it will be a minute or so less.

We really enjoyed these! I love brussel sprouts, but have never had them with these flavors. I was really glad I tried the combo — it was a nice change. I used fresh brussel sprouts and skipped the sugar. I steamed these in the microwave for about 6 minutes, so I used a lot less broth. Yummy!

what a unique way to fix sprouts! My husband enjoyed them and he's not a sprouts fan. I used the chicken broth and it added a nice flavor base. The leftovers were tasty since they absorbed more of the ginger flavor. These would be good added to a stir fry. Thanks Toni, for posting! Roxygirl

I love brussel sprouts and these were a nice way to serve them. I was surprised that the flavors were not as strong as I thought they would be, though letting them sit a few minutes and cool did strengthen them. I added some leftover cooked cubed chicken and stirred it all together to eat for lunch. A nice way to eat brussel sprouts. Next time I'll probably add a bit less broth/water (I used broth because I had some in my fridge that needed to be used) and a bit more soy sauce. Thanks toni!
