I loved everything about this dish! This was my first time making brussels sprouts at home, and I certainly picked the right recipe. The lemon zest and slices were just the right touch to make this recipe special. I left in the garlic and lemon slices -- saw no need to remove them, and that was the right choice. Next time, I will add a squeeze of lemon juice just before serving.
