Grilled Brussels Sprouts
Grilled Garlic Brussels Sprouts are the latest and greatest thing to come off my grill! Trimmed sprouts brushed with a garlic olive oil and grilled until the outer leaves get charred but the insides are tender and delicious. Great by themselves, but for extra WOW factor, I like to drizzle them in honey and reduced balsamic (glaze) and toss them with sliced almonds.Serves 4 to 6 in about 25 minutes.
Ingredients
- 24 ounces brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil extra light
- 1 clove garlic finely grated
- kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons honey optional
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze optional
- sliced almonds optional
Instructions
- Trim the ends and remove the tough leaves from the Brussels sprouts. Cut large ones in half, leaving the smaller ones whole.
- Preheat your grill to 400℉ (or 200℃).
- Thread 5 to 6 of the prepped Brussels sprouts onto metal skewers. I keep the halved sprouts separate from the whole Brussels sprouts to ensure even grilling.
- Add 1 clove of grated garlic to 2 tablespoons olive oil and stir to combine.
- Brush the garlic olive oil onto all sides of the brussels skewers and season with a few pinches of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Place the skewers onto your preheated grill, close the lid and grill for 4 minutes. Use tongs to rotate the skewers, grilling for an additional 3 to 4 more minutes or until lightly charred and tender.
- Once cooked, carefully remove skewers and let cool slightly before serving.
- These are great as is, however sometimes I like to drizzle mine with honey, reduced balsamic and sliced almonds.
