Lemon Brussels Sprouts with Onions
Another great recipe from Debra Daniels-Zeller's recipe book: Local Vegetarian Cooking: Inspired Recipes Celebrating Northwest Farms. Be sure to check out section on Willie Green's!
Lemon Brussels Sprouts with Onions (Serves 4)
2 tablespoons coconut oil or ghee
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound Brussels sprouts, cut in half
1 teaspoon honey or use agave nectar
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh lemon zest
Juice of 1 lemon (about 1/3 cup)
Salt to taste
Melt coconut oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add onion and pepper flakes, stir and cook until onion begins to brown. This may take about 10 minutes of stirring and cooking to caramelize onions. Add Brussels sprouts, cover and cook until sprouts are soft. You may need to add a little water to prevent sticking. Blend honey, lemon zest and juice together. When the Brussels sprouts have gotten soft, remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Add salt to taste.
