Glazed Brussels Sprouts And Potatoes Recipes

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH MAPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. (To get them perfectly crispy, make sure this is the only pan in the oven and you're not roasting anything else at the same time.)
• Slice off any hard ends of the Brussels sprouts, as needed. Slice them in half lengthwise and place them in a large bowl.
• Mix the sprouts with the olive oil, kosher salt, and lots of fresh ground black pepper.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper*, then pour the spouts onto the sheet. Turn them all cut side down.
• Roast for 25 minutes until very browned and tender (don't stir!).
• While the sprouts are roasting, place the maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes on medium low heat until thickened slightly and reduced (this should result in about 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoons glaze).
• When the sprouts are done, pour over the maple balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Melt butter and oil in a large deep skillet. Add brussels sprouts and minced shallot and saute until soft, about 8 minutes. Add white wine and continue to cook for 1 minute until evaporated. Season with salt and pepper. Add cream and bring to a simmer. Cool to room temperature.
• Smear a 1 1/2-quart shallow casserole dish with butter. Reserve 2 tablespoons of Parmesan for the topping. Arrange the potato slices evenly over the bottom of the dish and season with salt and pepper. Using a slotted spoon, spread a layer of brussels sprouts over the sliced potatoes and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Continue layering until all of the potatoes and brussels sprouts and all but the reserved 2 tablespoons of Parmesan have been used. The last layer should be potatoes. Pour the cream over the potatoes and top with the remaining Parmesan. Cover with buttered foil and bake for 45 minutes.
• Uncover the gratin and bake for 30 minutes longer, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.

SHERRY-GLAZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pearl onions and cook until tender and the skins peel off easily, about 2 minutes; drain and rinse under cold water. Trim the root ends and pinch the opposite ends to remove the skins.
• Combine the brussels sprouts, 1 cup water, 2 tablespoons butter, the sugar and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the brussels sprouts are bright green and crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Add the pearl onions and cook until the skillet is almost dry, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the sherry and thyme. Cook, tossing, until the vegetables are glazed, about 2 minutes; season with salt. Top with chives.

ROASTED POTATOES AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with foil.
• Combine potatoes and Brussels sprouts in a large bowl. Sprinkle lemon pepper and seasoned salt over the top and toss to coat. Drizzle olive oil over the top and toss until evenly combined. Spread out onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
• Cook in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Using a spatula, flip vegetables over and continue cooking until desired browning is achieved, about 15 more minutes.
