Seared Brussel Sprouts with Chaurice Sausage & Hot Honey
Wednesday, November 29, 2023
I’ve always struggled with how to prepare brussel sprouts during the holidays. They have always seemed so un-inspirational to me. But the bit of heat you get from the chaurice and the sweetness from the honey really gives this dish a nice sweet heat. However, the paprika from the chaurice sausage really pulls you South.
Ingredients
2 lbs. brussel sprouts
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. Chaurice sausage
1 Tbsp. hot honey
Instructions
Heat the oven to 350°.
Bring a sauce pan of heavily salted water to a boil.
In the meantime, prepare a large bowl with an ice water bath.
Add the brussel sprouts to the boiling water for 3 minutes.
Drain the brussel sprouts and place in the ice water bath.
Add the olive oil to a cast iron skillet that is heated over medium-high heat.
Place the brussel sprouts in the cast iron skillet, in a single layer cut side down.
Sear the brussel sprouts until they begin char and remove form the skillet onto a plate with paper towels.
Add the Chaurice sausage to the cast iron skillet and saute until the sausages being to char, as well. Remove the sausages from the skillet.
Slice the Chaurice sausage on the diagonal.
In a roaster pan or the cast iron skillet add the Chaurice sausage and the brussel sprouts and toss together. Add the hot honey to the mixture.
Place the pan in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
