Brusselssproutsandapricotsaute Recipes

Steps:

• Partially cook the Brussels sprouts in a large pot of boiling salted water, about 4 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and saute until beginning to crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts to the same skillet and saute until heated through and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the broth and simmer until the broth reduces just enough to coat the Brussels sprouts, about 3 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Fill a medium saucepan with several inches of salted water and bring to a boil. Add the sprouts and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse immediately under cold water. Drain well.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan (not nonstick) over medium-low heat. Add the pancetta and saute until browned in spots, about 8 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the sprouts, spreading them out so that they are, for the most part, in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until the sprouts are nicely golden in spots and fork tender, about 12 minutes. If the sprouts begin to brown all over and stick to the pan, add a splash of vinegar to the pan to help loosen the browned bits.
• Transfer to a serving dish and serve.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sprouts and apricots to the skillet. Drizzle water over the sprouts mixture. Pour syrup over the the mixture. Saute sprouts mixture until sprouts are wilted, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Stir lime juice into sprouts mixture just before removing from heat.

Steps:

• Stack prosciutto slices on top of one another. Cut stack in half crosswise, then layer stacks on top of one another. Starting at the shorter end of the stack, tightly roll the prosciutto into a compact cigar shape. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 3 hours or up to 3 days.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until lightly smoking. Add apples and cook, barely moving, until lightly colored, about 5 minutes. Stir in brussels sprouts and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove prosciutto from the freezer and use a hand grater to finely shave ham over the brussels sprouts before serving.

Steps:

• Trim outer leaves and any hard stems from sprouts and discard.
• Cut sprouts in half.
• Using a food processor with a slicing disc, push sprouts through feeding tube to thinly slice. Or, using a knife, shred into thin strips. They should measure about 8 cups.
• Chop apricots.
• Melt butter in a large, wide saucepan or frying pan over medium-high heat.
• Add sprouts and apricots. Drizzle with water, then syrup. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir often until sprouts are just wilted and done as you like. Start testing at 5 min., but it may take up to 10 minute to cook them to your liking. Stir in lime juice, then remove from heat.
• Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed.
• 1/2 cup servings.
