Ingredients

  • 4 cups shaved Brussel sprouts
  • 1 shallot minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts or sliced toasted almonds
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dry marjoram*
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper
  • Equipment
  • wooden spoon
  • large skillet with lid
  • measuring cups and spoons

Instructions

  1. Over medium heat, get your skillet hot and add 1 tablespoon butter.
  2. When the butter is melted, add the shaved Brussel sprouts, salt & pepper.  Stir.
  3. After 3-4 minutes they should be bright green, add the chicken broth and dry white wine.  Stir and cover.
  4. Let the liquid steam the sprouts for 5 minutes.  Take the lid off, and push the sprouts to the edge of the skillet.  Increase the heat and let the remaining liquid evaporate.

  6. Gently combine the shallots and sprouts and add the heavy cream and sprinkle in the toasted pine nuts.
  7. Serve and enjoy!
