Ingredients 

  • 1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts
  • 4 fresh garlic cloves, peeled & sliced thin
  • a small handful of fresh sage leaves, chopped
  • 2 Tbsps avocado, coconut oil, or olive oil
  • sea salt, or sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions 

  • Using a paring knife trim off the bottom stems of the sprouts. Remove any dry and yellow leaves.
  • Place the sprouts in a colander and wash under cold running water to remove any dirt. Next, carefully cut the sprouts in half lengthwise through the stem.
  • In a large saucepan fitted with a steamer basket, bring an inch of water to a boil.
  • Place the Brussels sprouts into the basket, cover and steam for 5-6 minutes until just tender-crisp.
  • Remove sprouts from heat and allow to cool and dry on paper towels.
  • Heat oil in a wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add in sage and sauté for 2 minutes, then add in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Immediately add in your Brussels sprouts and cook stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes.
  • Toss and turn the sprouts constantly or else they will stick to the pan and burn quickly.
  • Cook until sprouts are a bit crispy on the outer edge but soft and tender inside.
  • Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Transfer your sprouts to a serving dish and enjoy.
