Turkey Sausage Skillet with Brussel Sprouts and Sweet...
Main Ingredients: Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Turkey Sausage, Onions, Garlic
This one-pan meal is perfect for a quick and easy Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey sausage, brussels sprouts, and sweet potatoes come together to create a tasty and nutritious dish that's ready in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients:
For the brussel sprouts:
- 1 pound of brussel sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 4 tablespoons of olive oil
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- ½ teaspoon of black pepper
For the glaze:
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the trimmed and halved brussel sprouts with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss until the brussel sprouts are evenly coated.
Spread the brussel sprouts out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the brussel sprouts in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the honey, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens, about 5 minutes.
Remove the brussel sprouts from the oven and drizzle the glaze over them. Toss until the brussel sprouts are evenly coated.
Return the brussel sprouts to the oven and continue to roast for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized and the brussel sprouts are fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and serve hot as a delicious and unique side dish for your Thanksgiving dinner.
Incorporating Southern Flavors:
To give this brussel sprouts recipe a true Southern touch, consider adding some bacon to the mix. Simply cook a few slices of bacon until crispy, chop into small pieces, and sprinkle over the brussel sprouts before roasting them in the oven. The salty and smoky flavors of the bacon will complement the sweetness of the glaze and add an extra layer of flavor to the dish.
Another way to add a Southern twist is by using maple syrup instead of honey in the glaze. The rich and slightly nutty flavor of maple syrup pairs perfectly with the brussel sprouts and will give the dish a distinct Southern flavor.
In conclusion, don't be afraid to get creative with your Thanksgiving dinner this year and incorporate some brussel sprouts into your menu. With this easy and delicious recipe, you can add a touch of Southern charm to your holiday feast and impress your guests with a unique and flavorful side dish. Try it out and let us know how it turns out for you!
