Cast Iron Brussels Sprouts Food

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.

CAST IRON BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Saute red onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add Brussels sprouts; saute for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring balsamic vinegar and white wine to a simmer in a small pot. Stir in blackberry jam, hot sauce, and rosemary sprig. Simmer, uncovered, until balsamic vinegar reduces and thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Stir peanuts into Brussels sprouts mixture; cook and stir until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cranberries. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and seasoned tenderizer. Discard rosemary sprig from the vinegar mixture; pour over Brussels sprouts.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Transfer skillet to the oven and broil Brussels sprouts until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with bacon bits.

ONE-PAN CRISPY CHICKEN LEGS AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
• Wash, prep, de-stem and halve all of your Brussels sprouts.
• Toss them in a bowl with your olive oil and a pinch or two of salt, pepper and granulated garlic. Season to your taste.
• Wash your chicken legs and pat them dry.
• Liberally season both sides of your legs with salt, pepper and granulated garlic. Set aside.
• Heat up your coconut oil in your cast iron skillet until hot. To test, flick a drop of water into the oil. It should hiss and sizzle.
• Once your oil is heated up, add your chicken legs to the pan face down.
• Allow them to sit there and get crispy. This will take several minutes. Don't move them, even if you are tempted. Mine crisped up in 6-8 minutes.
• Once the first side is crispy, flip your chicken legs over and crisp up the other side.
• When both sides of the chicken are crisped up, add in your Brussels sprouts to the pan along with your chicken broth and lemon juice. Stir.
• Place your pan in the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
• Garnish with some freshly grated Pecornio or Parmesan cheese and serve.
