  • 1 Pound Fresh Brussels sprouts
  • 1/4 Cup Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 2 Cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Washing the Brussels Sprouts: Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly and trim the stem ends. Remove any damaged outer leaves. If they are larger, cut them in half.
  • Boil Brussels Sprouts: Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt. Place the Brussels sprouts in the boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool down. Drain again and pat them dry.

  • Marinate the lemon garlic Brussel Sprouts:  Place the blanched and dried Brussels sprouts in a resealable plastic bag or a container with a lid. Pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Seal the bag or container gently, shake or toss to distribute the marinade evenly.
  • Marinating Time: Refrigerate the marinated Brussels sprouts for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and infuse into the Brussels sprouts.
  • Smoke the Brussels Sprouts: To smoke, Spread the marinated lemon garlic Brussel Sprouts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Smoke for about 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Serve: If desired, once smoked or brought to room temperature, Serve Brussel Sprouts with creamy lemon sauce and fresh herbs. Serve as a delightful and tangy dish.
