This has become one of our favorite side dishes. And, oh, so healthy.
First, chiffonade the Brussels sprouts. If it is for a small group, like my wife and I, just use a chef’s knife.
- Cut them in half
- Lay them face down
- Hold on to the stems
- Roll across the ends with a chef’s knife to create 1/8″ slices.
You can also use a mandolin or a food processor for larger batches.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Brussels Sprouts
- 2 tbsp ghee

Instructions
- Cut the Brussels sprouts in half, then chiffonade them into 1/8" slices
- Heat a skillet to medium-high heat
- Add the ghee and oil letting it come to a shimmer
- Add the Brussels sprouts and walnuts.
- Sprinkle them with fresh ground nutmeg.
- Turn them over every few minutes but not too often. Do not stir fry them. Let them sit in contact with the skillet letting them carmelize.
- When they are cooked to your liking, splash them with the lemon juice and fold in the dried cranberries.
- Turn once more and serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
This can be made keto by leaving out the dried cranberries

I was never a fan of Brussels sprouts when I was younger. My son loves them and he’s slowly won me over. I’ve never cut them in a chiffonade, this turned out great. Thanks for sharing!
