Roasted Brussels Sprouts With A Pomegranate Reduction Recipes

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH A POMEGRANATE REDUCTION

Steps:

• Position the baking rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 425[dg]F. In a large bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with oil and a few pinches of salt. Spread the brussels sprouts over a shallow baking pan and roast for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sprouts are lightly browned and crispy.
• While the brussels sprouts are roasting, in a small saucepan combine the pomegranate juice with the sugar and set over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. When the liquid comes to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer until the liquid is reduced to one quarter of the original amount and is thick and syrupy, about 25 minutes. Toward the end, watch the reduction carefully - it can go from thick to burned in a matter of seconds. Transfer the reduction to a cooling rack and let it come to room temperature. Do not refrigerate.
• Drizzle the reduction over the brussels sprouts and sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the Brussels sprouts in a medium roasting pan; toss with the canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven until light golden brown and a knife inserted into the centers goes in without any resistance, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer the sprouts to a large bowl and add the pomegranate molasses, pomegranate seeds, hazelnuts, and lime and orange zests. Season with salt as needed.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CHESTNUTS, POMEGRANATE, AND CIDER REDUCTION

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss halved brussels sprouts with oil; season with salt. Spread in a single layer and roast, stirring once halfway through, until browned and crisp in places, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine cider, vinegar, and Dijon in a saucepan; season with salt and pepper. Boil, stirring occasionally, until syrupy and reduced to 1/4 cup, about 12 minutes.
• Toss roasted and raw brussels sprouts with chestnuts, cider reduction, and 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds; season with salt and pepper. Top with remaining 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds; serve.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE SEEDS

Steps:

• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil; add the garlic and red pepper and heat over medium heat. Cook until the garlic has turned a lovely golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then remove it from the pan and ditch it -- it has fulfilled its garlic destiny! Add the pancetta and walnuts and cook until the pancetta is crispy and brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the Brussels sprout leaves and toss to combine. Season with salt, cover and cook until the sprouts have wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the lid, raise the heat to medium-high and let the leaves brown and "frizzle," 8 to 10 minutes more. Taste and season with salt if needed. Serve garnished with the pomegranate seeds.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE & FETA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Prepare sprouts. First, rinse them well, then cut any brown ends off of the bottom and remove any shriveled or brown leaves. Cut larger sprouts in half so that all pieces are roughly the same size. Rinse and shake off excess water.
• Pour sprouts onto a large rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with the olive oil, and toss gently until well-coated. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt.
• Bake, turning every 10 minutes, until tender and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from oven and arrange on a plate. Sprinkle feta and pomegranate seeds over the top, then drizzle with the pomegranate molasses. Taste and add additional salt if desired. Serve.
