Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¾ lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
- ¼ cup chopped roasted almonds
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large, non-stick or cast-iron frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts, cut side down, and sprinkle them with salt. Let them cook for 5 minutes, or until they are tender but still have a bit of bite. Reduce the heat if the brussels are browning too much.

- Once the brussels can be pierced with a fork, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chopped almonds and balsamic glaze.¼ cup chopped roasted almonds, 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
Notes
Depending on the size of the Brussels sprouts, they will be fork-tender after 5 minutes and still have a bit of a delicious bite. If you prefer your Brussels soft, add a splash of water and let them steam for another couple of minutes.
