If you like roasted Brussels sprouts, you should give grilled sprouts a try. Just like when you roast them, the outer leaves get a little browned and irresistibly crisp, but the sprouts also pick up a little bit of char flavour from the flames. We microwave-steam them first to “set” their vibrant colour and to ensure they’ll be tender when they emerge from the grill. If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before threading on the sprouts.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Brussels sprouts

1 pound(s), trimmed

Olive oil

1 tbsp(s)

Lemon zest

1 tsp(s), finely grated

Kosher salt

½ tsp(s)

Black pepper

¼ tsp(s)

Grated Parmesan cheese

1½ tbsp(s)

Instructions

  1. Off heat, coat grill rack or grill pan with nonstick spray. Preheat gas grill or grill pan to medium-high, or prepare medium-high fire in charcoal grill.
  2. In medium microwave-safe bowl, add Brussels sprouts and 1⁄4 cup water. Cover and microwave on High until sprouts are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain sprouts and return to bowl. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat. Divide Brussels sprouts among 4 (8- to 10-inch) skewers.
  3. Grill skewers, turning occasionally, until Brussels sprouts are lightly charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer skewers to platter. Sprinkle sprouts with cheese.
  4. Serving size: 1 skewer
