Cider-Glazed Brussels Sprouts

These Cider-Glazed Brussels Sprouts are tender yet still have a bite to them, which is a far cry from the Brussels Sprouts I remember as a child, which were almost always overcooked and mushy. Serve these Cider-Glazed Brussels Sprouts as a side dish at Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 pounds Brussels Sprouts, trimmed and with an x cut on the bottom
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, sliced thinly
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup apple cider
• Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook trimmed Brussels Sprouts for 6-8 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain water.

In a large skillet, heat oil on medium and saute garlic and red onion. Add Brussels Sprouts and apple cider. Cook on high until cider is reduced and Brussels sprouts are tender.
