Pan-Seared Brussels Sprouts with Feta and Honey
For these skillet-charred Brussels sprouts, salty feta, sweet honey, spicy red pepper flakes and a dose of lemon juice create a delicious mix of contrasting flavors. Cooking the sprouts in a searing-hot skillet creates a deep caramelization of natural sugars that counters the vegetable's tendency to bitterness. Chopped almonds contribute a rich, nutty crunch; pomegranate seeds also work nicely, adding pops of color and tang. Be sure to reduce the heat to medium once you’ve added the sprouts; this ensures they char and become tender but don’t burn. And choose Brussels sprouts that are similarly sized. Small to medium ones work best.

tablespoon neutral oil

01In a medium bowl, toss the sprouts with the oil, 2 teaspoons of the honey, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high until water flicked onto the surface immediately sizzles and evaporates. Place the sprouts cut side down in the pan, then reduce to medium; reserve the bowl. Cook without stirring until deeply browned on the bottoms, 5 to 7 minutes.
