  • 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

  • Thread the sprouts onto wood or metal skewers.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high heat.

Notes

  1. Look for sprouts that are similar in size so that they cook at the same rate.
  2. You can serve the Brussels sprouts on or off the skewers, whichever you prefer.
  3. Don't want to use skewers? Place your sprouts in a grilling basket as an alternate cooking method.
