Total Time: 25 minPrep: 10 minCook: 15 minYield: 4Level: easy
Directions
In a medium cooking pot with a tight-fitting lid, set a steamer basket over 1 1/2 water. Add Brussels sprouts, and steam over high heat until tender, about 10 minutes.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salt and cook, watching carefully, until butter sizzles, browns slightly, and gives off a nutty aroma.
Zest the entire lemon (about 1 tablespoon) then squeeze juice from lemon halves into the pan and add the zest.
Stir in Brussels sprouts; cook, shaking pan occasionally, until warmed through.
