Brussels Sprouts With Toasted Pecans
- 16 ounces, weight Brussels Sprouts
- 1/4 cups Whole Pecans
- 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1/2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar (fig Balsamic If You Can Find It)
- 1 teaspoon Coarse-ground Dijon Mustard
- Kosher Salt To Taste
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- 1. Put about an inch of water in a pot, insert your steamer basket and bring the water to a simmer (or prep for your favorite steaming method). Prep Brussels sprouts by cutting off the end of the stem and cutting a small "X" into the remaining stem. Remove any damaged outer leaves and put the sprouts into your steamer. Steam the Brussels sprouts for about 6 minutes. They should remain bright green in color and pierce easily with the tip of a knife. When done remove them from the heat.
- 2. Toast pecans on a baking sheet in the 350 F oven for 5-6 minutes.
- 3. Prepare vinaigrette in a small bowl by mixing together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, prepared mustard and salt.
- 4. Toss together the sprouts, pecans and vinaigrette.
- 5. Serve.
