Ingredients
Method
Prep
- Add lemon juice to a large bowl.
- Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and using a food processor with the slicing attachment, or a sharp knife, slice the Brussels sprouts into thin shreds. If using a knife, halve the sprouts lengthwise first, then thinly slice across.
- As you slice, add the Brussels sprouts to the bowl with the lemon juice, tossing occasionally to coat evenly. Gently massage to soften leaves.
Make
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the minced garlic, cumin seeds, and black pepper sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet, stirring frequently to ensure they cook evenly. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes, until the sprouts have softened slightly but are still green.
- Season with salt to taste.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the desired amount of grated lemon zest – more if you like lemony and less if you want a hint of lemon.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
