Steps

1. ### Creamy Parmesan Brussels Sprouts Recipe: A Flavorful Side Dish
3. #### Ingredients:
4. - 1 lb (450g) of fresh brussels sprouts
5. - 2 tablespoons olive oil
6. - Salt and pepper to taste
7. - 1 garlic clove, minced
8. - 1/2 cup (60g) grated Parmesan cheese
9. - 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
10. - Optional: 1/4 cup heavy cream for extra richness
12. #### Step-by-Step Instructions:
14. 1. **Preparation**:
15. - Start by selecting fresh, firm brussels sprouts. Rinse them under cold water and trim off the stem ends.
16. - Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
18. 2. **Cooking Brussels Sprouts**:
19. - Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the heated skillet. Once hot, add the brussels sprouts in a single layer without overcrowding the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they develop some nice brown spots and are tender when pierced with a fork.
21. 3. **Adding Aromatics**:
22. - Once the brussels sprouts are cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
23. - In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
25. 4. **Preparing the Creamy Mixture**:
26. - Return the brussels sprouts to the skillet along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
27. - If desired, pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently to incorporate it into the mixture. Let this heat through for another 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
29. 5. **Adding Cheese**:
30. - Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the brussels sprouts. Toss gently so that all pieces are coated with cheese.
31. - Add dried thyme (or fresh, finely chopped) and stir to combine.
33. 6. **Final Touches**:
34. - Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
35. - Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
37. 7. **Serving**:
38. - Serve immediately, garnished with extra thyme leaves or a sprinkle of Parmesan.
40. #### Tips & Variations:
42. - For a crispier texture, you can roast the brussels sprouts in the oven before adding them to the skillet.
43. - Experiment with other cheeses like Gruyère for a different flavor profile.
44. - Use this recipe as a base and try adding other vegetables such as roasted sweet potatoes or sliced red onions.
