Crispy Brussels Sprouts With Garlic Aioli

Submitted by Cook4_6

"My family loves brussels sprouts...always looking for new ways to prepare them. You can also parboil the brussel sprouts for about 4 minutes before slicing them for a more tender result. I make the sauce with low fat mayo and it is to die for delicious!"

We love roasted brussels sprouts, but I had never considered an aioli pairing before. The aioli in this recipe is quick and easy and very flavorful and paired nicely with the roasted sprouts. We served as a side to Recipe #457427. Thanks!

Mmmmm, mmmmm, GOOD! We love brussels sprouts fixed almost any which way, and have made them roasted before. But this recipe was so easy to make and aside from the brussels sprouts, all the rest of the ingredients are pantry staples. The aioli was super simple and super tasty. We had these with seared ahi, and the aioli was very good atop the tuna, too! We took the suggestion to parboil the sprouts for a few minutes before cutting into wedges, and that was brilliant. The sprouts cooked up nice and tender, allowing them to be browned quickly in the toaster oven. Yum! Thanks for posting - these will be a family favorite! (Made for Photo Tag Winter 2013)
