Ingredients

  • 1 lb Brussel sprouts, ends trimmed and halved

  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to about 375 degrees.
  • Using a spice or coffee grinder, grind the fennel and coriander seeds.
  • Toss Brussel sprouts with olive oil in a mixing bowl. Season with half the fennel, coriander, salt and pepper.
  • Heat cast iron skillet on medium high heat. Add sprouts and brown for 2-3 minutes. During the last minute add remaining seasoning, the grapes and balsamic vinegar and stir well.
  • Turn off heat and place the skillet of sprouts and grapes into the oven. Roast in the oven until sprouts are fork tender or can be pierced with a knife (about 20 minutes)

Notes

  • I prefer my Brussels sprouts to have crispy edges, so I halve the sprouts and sear/brown them on the cut side before roasting.
  • For next-level flavor, if using coriander and fennel seeds, then toast them prior to grinding
  • Keep it light with the spices/seasonings as purple sprouts are naturally sweet and cooking will easily bring this out as well as that nutty flavor.
  • For additional flavor and crunchy texture add nuts like pecans.
  • Green Brussel sprouts work fine in this recipe, so feel free to substitute them freely.
