This was great. My DH doesn't like Brussels sprouts, either, and ate a good serving. This is a recipe where you want your mise-en-place -- i.e., have everything ready before you fire up the pan, because, although it says "braised", these Brussels sprouts need to cook no longer than the stated time for the freshest flavor.

My husband who has never liked brussel sprouts said it was ok and ate two spoons full.
