So simple, yet so good! We're fans of steamed Brussels sprouts, yet these could lure in those on the fence with their quasi-roasted allure.

I really loved this recipe. I made it exactly as follows other than adding a tiny bit extra of olive oil and water. I'll definitely be making this again. Thanks Syd!

Delicious! I modified the method to first steam, then pan fry them on medium high heat to brown them, skipping the water. Great great flavor. This served two in our house.

Great recipe! The sprouts turned out nicely browned and cooked beautifully. Of course, I did add more lemon pepper cause I'm addicted to the stuff. Thanks Syd!

Wonderful!! Brussels Sprouts are my favorite veggie, and this is my favorite way to cook them! I took the zest down to about 3/4 tsp, and they were perfect! I can't wait to make them again. Thanks!!
