Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts
  • 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil or avocado oil
  • ½ tsp. fine sea salt plus more to taste
  • 2 ½ oz. goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1-2 tbsp. raw honey (amount depends on how sweet you'd like them to be)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425F.
  • Cut bottoms off of Brussels sprouts and cut in half lengthwise.
  • Spread oil on bottom of skillet and place Brussels sprouts, cut side down, in pan.
  • Cook Brussels on the stovetop over medium high heat until the cut sides are brown and crispy. This should take about 10 minutes (do not stir), but I would start checking around 8 minutes to ensure they don't burn.
  • Once Brussels are crisp on the cut side, sprinkle with ½ tsp. salt and gently stir. Place skillet directly into preheated oven.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until Brussels can be pierced with a fork, or until they are browned and crisp. Mix half way through.
  • Remove from oven, and immediately sprinkle crumbled goat cheese and drizzle with honey. Add more salt to taste.
  • Best served right away. You can either serve directly from skillet or transfer to a bowl. Enjoy!

Notes

  • I have two cast iron skillets, so when I double/triple the recipe I use two skillets and fry them at the same time. You can transfer them all to one skillet when roasting in the oven if you have a larger skillet 
  • If you'd like, you can also add toasted walnuts or make festive with dried cranberries or pomegranate seeds after they come out of the oven.
