Brussels Sprouts With Mushrooms And Ginger Food

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH MUSHROOMS AND GINGER

Steps:

• Cut the shiitake caps into bite-size pieces (quartered or halved, depending on the size).
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil over high heat in a wok or large skillet. When almost smoking, add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned and slightly crispy, 3 to 4 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Resist the urge to move them too much unless they are burning. Remove to a plate. Lower the heat to medium-high and add the remaining tablespoon oil and the Brussels sprouts. Season with salt and pepper and cook until browned or charred on one side, about 3 minutes. Stir in the ginger and cook until aromatic and slightly browned, stirring constantly, about 15 seconds. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chicken broth (the sprouts should be just submerged in the liquid) and cook at a rapid simmer until the sprouts are tender when pierced with a knife and the liquid has boiled away, 6 to 8 minutes more.
• Return the mushrooms to the wok, fold to combine and season. Serve on a platter.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND MUSHROOMS WITH GREMOLATA AND QUINOA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets or baking dishes with parchment or foil and brush with olive oil. Place the Brussels sprouts on one and mushrooms on the other and toss each with salt and pepper to taste and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Roast together in the oven, or 1 sheet at a time, for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. The Brussels sprouts should be browned on the edges and tender. The mushrooms should be soft and there should be juice on the baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together garlic, parsley and lemon zest (this is the gremolata).
• Tip mushrooms, with the juice in the baking dish, into a large bowl. Add Brussels sprouts and gremolata and toss together. Spoon quinoa onto plates or into wide bowls, top with the Brussels sprouts and mushrooms, spoon on any juice remaining in the bowl, top with crumbled feta or goat cheese if desired and serve.

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms until lightly browned. Toss Brussels sprouts with mushrooms, and sprinkle with parsley and lemon juice. Serve immediately.

CAST-IRON SKILLET BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH SHRIMP AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine the rice with 2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, honey and crushed red pepper in a small bowl. Set the sauce aside.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil to the hot skillet, then swirl to coat the bottom entirely. Place the Brussels sprouts cut-side down in a single layer. Cook, undisturbed, until the sprouts have developed a golden-brown crust, about 2 minutes. Toss the sprouts, then continue to cook until they're bright green and crisp tender, about 2 minutes.
• Add 1 more tablespoon of the vegetable oil to the skillet along with the mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and browned in spots, about 2 minutes.
• Create space for the shrimp in the middle of the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Lay the shrimp flat in a single layer and cook until the shrimp have turned pink and a light crust begins to form, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until just cooked through, about 1 minute.
• Pour the sauce over the shrimp and vegetables, then toss until everything is evenly coated and the sauce has reduced slightly, about 1 minute.
• Divide the rice and Brussels sprout mixture between 2 serving bowls. Top with the scallions, drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

MUSHROOM AND BRUSSELS SPROUT STIR-FRY

Steps:

• In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and sauté until soft, adding a bit of water if necessary. Remove the mushrooms and set aside.
• Pour remaining oil into the wok and add the garlic and Brussels sprouts. Stir-fry the vegetables, adding the rice wine, fish sauce, and cooked mushrooms, and continue stirring 15-30 seconds so the liquid can evaporate. Remove from the wok and serve immediately.
