Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Gribenes
Like Brussels Sprouts and Bacon but for Jews!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup pecans or walnuts chopped
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or 3/4 Tablespoon olive oil and 3/4 Tablespoon schmaltz in liquid form
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Drizzle aged balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Spread nuts on a foil lined cookie sheet and roast about 5 minutes. Careful, they burn fast! Take them out as soon as they smell nutty.
- Next up, wash your Brussels and pick off any leaves that are ugly. Trim the stem and cut in half.
- Then toss with olive oil (or half olive oil half schmaltz), salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Spread on a cookie sheet lined with foil and roast for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until golden brown. I like mine roasted until very brown, but do what Jew like!
- Immediately toss with gribenes and nuts and drizzle with aged balsamic if desired. Eat right away!
