Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Lemon

I usually only have Brussels sprouts a couple of times a year and this is one of my favorite ways to make them! The lemon juice is a perfect flavor compliment ;-)

Ingredients:

• 3/4 lb. Brussels sprouts, quartered
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 1 lemon, quartered serving

Directions:

Combine the sprouts and 1/2 cup water in a skillet and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until most of the water has evaporated and sprouts are crispy tender, about 5 to 8 minutes (add more water if necessary).

Increase heat to medium high, add oil to skillet and continue to cook, uncovered, without stirring, until sprouts are golden brown on underside, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice and season with a bit more salt and pepper if desired. Serve with lemon wedges.
