Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Brussels sprouts, base and outer leaves trimmed, and halved
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced shallots
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 3/4 cup roughly chopped walnuts
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan

Directions

Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and add the Brussels sprouts. Cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.

In a large saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Add the sprouts in 1 layer and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and when melted, add the walnuts and cook, stirring, until golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, salt, pepper, and sprouts, and stir well to coat and warm through.

Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Serve immediately.

    YUM!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This recipe is amazing! I burnt the walnuts the first time around, so I had to redo that part. I really like Parmesan, but... I only used 1/4 cup and that was plenty. Delicious!Read more

    It took 47 years, but now I'm officially a Brussel Sprouts lover!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Hated them and then my interest was piqued after a great restaurant chef served them to us, in all places, tiny Phillipsburg,... Montana. So, I eagerly made a batch of Emeril's and WOW, they're great! Upon the second try, I added a 1/4+ cup of brown sugar, substituted lime juice for the lemon, boiled them 2 minutes longer, and sauteed them 4 minutes longer, until they were nice and tender. This is a keeper and a worthy holiday dish! Thanks Mr. Lagasse!! Read more

    Always a favorite!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I can't tell you how many times I get requests to bring this particular dish to a gathering. Whenever I call to ask what I... can bring, the hostess will sheepishly say, "Everyone's hoping you'll bring your brussels sprouts again." So ... Emeril ... THANKS! These are delish and always a favorite! I plan on making them as long as brussels sprouts can be gotten. Mighty ... mighty tasty, sir!Read more

    I made this for Thanksgiving and they were very flavorful. The walnuts added the right touch. I will make these again.

    not so great

    Rated: 3 stars out of 5
    I was looking for something different ro do with brussel sprouts but I was wary of the ingredients. 1st, cut the butter in... half and then easy on everything else. The parmesan cheese doesn't go well. Unless you don't care about SOMETHING healthy on your plate, go with the bacon recipes. Otherwise, just a pat of butter is best.Read more
