Step by Step Method

Step 1

Melt the butter and olive oil at medium-high in a skillet until the butter foams.

Step 2

Reduce heat to medium, add the garlic and cook until lightly toasted.

Step 3

Remove the garlic and toss it out.

Step 4

Add the sprouts, cut side down. Cover and cook without stirring for about 15 minutes or until tender. The cut side should be nicely browned.

Step 5

Top with the parmesan, if desired (I really don't think this recipe needs it, but hey....go for it if it sounds good). Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve and wait for your standing ovation!

Delicious! (But I put the garlic back in later.) I prefer a squeeze of lemon juice to finish rather than Parmesan.

This recipe will be made over and over again. We loved the flavor. The one thing I did differently was to leave the garlic in the pan- It gets all crispy and good in fact next time I may add a couple of cloves they were so good. Thanks Sandy for a keeper
